Rota Sports & Outdoors

The beaches around Rota are great for many activities. However, most of the people who come to the beach are lounging under umbrellas or just soaking up the sun. For some of the more adventurous you can do a bit of bouldering around the rocks at Playa de Chorrillo. The sand at the far end of Playa de Chorrillo is a bit more rocky than it is towards Playa del Rompidillo so it is not as easy to run on. Most people who are doing any sort of sport are usually kicking around a futbol or using paddles and a small ball on a makeshift court. These types of sports are not as annoying to the sunbathers or the lifeguards on duty. If you want to play anything more like a game of ultimate frisbee, football, or a full game of futbol you will be asked to find an area that is clear of people. This means the areas on the beach that are farther away from the water. These are areas with a lot more sand and definitely less people. If you are just planning on throwing a football around or even a frisbee a lifeguard may ask you to move to one of those other areas. Playa del Rompidillo is great for this as the sand is soft and generally rock/shell free.

Equipment: Bring your own ball: football, futbol, or frisbee, etc.
