Whether in the open air or indoors, Andalusia offers a wide range of sporting activities, and there are all kinds of national and international competitions held in the region.

The resources and infrastructure available make Andalusia an ideal, privileged destination for anyone looking to practise sport, whether competitively or as a leisure pursuit. The Region of Andalusia is an irresistible setting for sportspeople; from maritime areas and rivers for water activities, to snowy mountains where professionals and enthusiasts have all the necessary facilities for snow sports. There are golf courses in all the provinces of Andalusia, nature areas for hikers and mountain bike enthusiasts, hunting and fishing reserves, and a long list of further activities including more traditional and commonplace sports.

Sporting events held regularly at Andalusia's different sports halls, stadiums, circuits, pitches and courts also allow spectators to enjoy live sporting competition at the highest level. Famous events like Formula 1 Grand Prix or the Motorcycle Racing World Championship can be found alongside international surfing and bodyboard competitions. Combine this with Eurobasket 2007 fixtures and you can see the important presence of international competition in Andalusia.
