Summer sports for all ages from 2.6.
We organise summer sports for all ages: for the little ones, there are swimming schools on the beaches, in the land pool and swimming pools, and guided playground parties in the parks. For young people and young adults, there is a wide range of summer activities, and for older people, low-threshold gymnastics. Most of the activities are free of charge, some require registration.
