Fitness on Holiday: Make the Most of Riberamar’s Gym, Padel Court and Sports Ground

Looking to keep your routine on track without sacrificing relaxation? Fitness on holiday is simple at Riberamar. With an on-site gym, a glass-walled padel court, multi-sport areas, and pools you can use in every season, you’ll find everything you need to stay active just steps from your accommodation and the Mediterranean beach.

In this guide, you’ll learn how to structure energising days using our facilities, find practical tips for workouts and recovery, and discover active ways to explore our coastal setting.

Why “Fitness on Holiday” Works at Riberamar

Riberamar brings together seaside calm and versatile sports facilities so you can move, play and recharge:

• On-site gym for strength and cardio sessions.
• Glass-walled padel court, plus a small football pitch, ping-pong tables and a petanque area.
• Two outdoor swimming pools, plus a covered pool you can enjoy in any season; the indoor pool is climatized in winter.
• Free sun-loungers in the pool area for post-workout recovery.
• Beach within 101–500 metres, ideal for runs, walks and sunrise mobility sessions.
• Multi-purpose sports ground and a children’s playground to keep all ages moving.
• WiFi across the site (complimentary in rental accommodations and available for purchase on camping pitches), perfect for streaming workouts or tracking progress.
• Accessible facilities including adapted sanitary blocks, adapted cabins for rent, and a hydraulic lift to enhance comfort and inclusion.
• Cardioprotected space with a defibrillator on site.
• Open all year, and inspected annually by ACSI for quality and safety.

All of this sits within a four-star campsite on Spain’s Costa de Azahar, designed for families, couples and solo travellers who want activity and ease in equal measure.

The Gym: Stay Strong While You Unwind

The on-site gym gives you a convenient base for short, effective sessions before the beach or after a day of exploring.

• Keep sessions focused: pair a compound strength move (e.g., squats, push-ups, rows) with a cardio burst (e.g., brisk incline walk or bike) for 20–30 minutes.
• Use time-based circuits: 40 seconds work, 20 seconds rest, 3–4 rounds. This keeps intensity up and planning simple.
• Bring essentials: a refillable water bottle, small towel, and appropriate footwear. Headphones and a favourite playlist help maintain pace.
• Leverage WiFi to stream a class, set timers, or log reps in your training app. WiFi is free in bungalows, cabins and mobile homes, and can be purchased for pitches at reception.

Pro tip: Schedule gym visits around cooler hours in summer and pair them with a refreshing dip in the pool or sea.

Game On: Padel at Riberamar’s Glass-Walled Court

Padel blends elements of tennis and squash into a fast, social game—great cardio, quick footwork, and lots of fun. Our glass-walled padel court offers a modern setting for singles practice or doubles play.

• What to bring: your racket, a sleeve of balls, court shoes, water and sunscreen.
• Warm-up flow (5–8 minutes): dynamic ankle and hip mobility, light lateral shuffles, mini rallies.
• Drill ideas: cross-court groundstrokes, wall rebounds, and volley-volley exchanges to sharpen reflexes.
• Court access: for availability and usage guidelines, ask reception—our team is available 24/7 to help you plan play times or coordinate friendly matches with neighbours.

Sports Ground, Football, Ping-Pong and Petanque

Variety keeps training engaging. Mix up your week with our on-site options:

• Small football pitch: short-sided games, shuttle runs, and agility ladders (you can mark cones with towels) make for an excellent HIIT session.
• Ping-pong tables: fast-paced rallies build hand–eye coordination and are a brilliant active break for families.
• Petanque area: low-impact movement with focus and precision—ideal for recovery days or multigenerational play.
• Multi-purpose sports ground: design your own circuits—think bodyweight moves, sprints, and balance drills.

Swim Year-Round: Outdoor and Indoor Pools

Swimming is joint-friendly and highly effective for fitness and recovery.

• Enjoy two outdoor pools for leisurely lengths or family splash sessions.
• Use the covered pool to keep your routine on track in any season; it is heated during winter for comfortable year-round swims.
• Sun-loungers are free—perfect for cooldowns, stretching, and catching a few rays after training.
• Pool etiquette: no swim caps required; guests with long hair should keep it tied back.

Quick workout ideas:

• Intervals: 6–10 x 50 m easy–moderate, 20–30 seconds rest between.
• Technique set: alternate drill and swim (catch-up, fingertip drag, kickboard work).
• Aqua-fit: water jogging and leg/core exercises for low-impact conditioning.

Active Beyond the Gates: Beach, Bikes and Trails

Our coastal location makes it easy to turn exploration into exercise.

• Beach runs and walks: with the shoreline within 101–500 metres, soft sand ramps up effort for shorter, efficient sessions.
• Cycling: we’re close to the Via Verde cycle route—a scenic way to clock miles with minimal traffic.
• Bike rental made easy: hire with our partner Ecodrive from as little as €2 (by the hour or by the day). Bikes can be delivered to your pitch or accommodation. For arrangements, ask reception, call +34 626 366 157, or send a WhatsApp to +34 964 319 762.
• Hiking: visit reception for maps and advice on nearby routes to add variety and nature to your training week.

Fitness for Everyone: Families, Accessibility and Pets

We want every guest to feel included and inspired to move.

• Families: a children’s playground and children’s bathroom area make active days simpler for parents and fun for little ones.
• Accessibility: adapted sanitary blocks, adapted cabins for rent, and an on-site hydraulic lift enhance access and comfort. The campsite is classified as suitable for guests with disabilities.
• Pets: pets are allowed on camping plots, and there’s a pet-washing area—great after a sandy beach walk.
• Safety: as a cardioprotected space with a defibrillator, Riberamar adds extra peace of mind while you train.
