Abstract:
Countries covered: Europe

Watersports holidays are a niche segment of the European travel market, and comparatively few tour operators offer holidays where water-based activities are the main focus. Instead, holidaymakers tend to participate in watersports on an ad hoc basis, booking activities and courses directly with local providers in or near to their chosen resort or holiday destination.

As travel becomes generally cheaper and easier, the demands of tourists become increasingly diverse, with many prospective holidaymakers seeking smaller-scale or more unusual activities. This is driving the growth in water-based holidays and multi-activity breaks with watersports components.

This report gives an overview of the broad range of watersports that are available in destinations throughout Europe, examines different types of watersports holidays and looks at watersports tourism in the Croatia, Czech Republic, France, Great Britain, Greece, Hungary, Portugal, Slovenia and Spain.
