Lloret de Mar is one of the towns on the Costa Brava with the longest sporting tradition. Throughout the year, all kinds of events are held for both amateurs and sports professionals. Discover in this post all the sporting events planned to date for this 2023 in Lloret de Mar.
The municipality of Lloret de Mar is located on the coast of the province of Girona, in the south of the well-known Costa Brava, between the towns of Blanes and Tossa de Mar, an exceptional location on the Mediterranean coast.
Lloret de Mar can boast of having a Mediterranean climate with mild temperatures and many hours of sunshine that allow the practice of outdoor sports throughout the year. Its territory has 9 km of coastline, with beaches and coves of different types, and 27 km2 of forest mass, with forests and mountains of a certain unevenness.
The town has different sports areas located in the center of the town with modern sports facilities and equipment, which each year host thousands of athletes who participate in federated and professional competitions and tournaments.
In addition to all this, the town has been distinguished with the Sports Tourism label from the Catalan Tourism Agency, which is awarded to those municipalities that meet quality standards in different sports disciplines, such as football, athletics, swimming, team sports, triathlon and cycling, as in the case of Lloret de Mar.
Lloret de Mar is the ideal place to practice all kinds of sports, both individual and collective. The municipality has three soccer fields: the municipal soccer field (carrer dels Mestres, s/n), the El Molí soccer field (avinguda del Rieral, 28) and the soccer field of the municipal athletic tracks (avinguda del Rieral, 14).
It also has three pavilions or sports centers to practice all kinds of team sports such as basketball, roller hockey or handball: the municipal pavilion (carrer dels Mestres, s/n), the CEIP Pompeu Fabra sports center (avinguda del Rieral, 13) and the El Molí sports center (carrer Senyora de Rossell, 12).
Lloret de Mar has its own municipal athletics tracks (avinguda del Rieral, 14) to practice different disciplines such as running, jumping, throwing, walking or combined events. Right next door, you will find a sports center (avinguda del Rieral, 22) with a fitness room equipped with the latest generation machines, tennis and padel courts and an Olympic-sized pool, where all kinds of swimming and water polo events are held.
The coastal paths, the paved roads and the mountains and forests that surround the town are perfect for practicing sports such as running or road or mountain biking. The town is also ideal for practicing combined sports such as triathlon, since its excellent geographical location combines the beach, the city and the mountains.
The town has seven beaches and coves where you can practice water activities such as snorkeling, scuba diving, kayaking or paddle surfing: Canyelles cove, Sa Caleta, Lloret de Mar beach, Fenals beach, Boadella cove, the Santa Cristina beach and Treumal cove.
