On contrary this is the perfect time to c<strong>ombine discovery and physical activity.<\/strong>\u00a0On this page we have collected the most exciting sports to do on the Gargano. We want to make your holiday dynamic, let&#8217;s go.<\/p>\r\n<h2>Equitation<\/h2>\r\n<p>If you love animals and nature, an excellent idea to visit Puglia would be to do it on the back of a horse. Arriving on the Gargano in spring you can enjoy long <strong>rides on the beach<\/strong>, visit all the most suggestive bays in the area while exercising and connecting with these wonderful creatures. In the warmer periods, given the temperatures and the crowds on the beaches, a horse ride can be the perfect excuse to get away from the busiest places and hole up in the Gargano woods. <strong>The native horses are those from <em>Murge. <\/em><\/strong>They are\u00a0beautiful but also suitable for<strong> long walks<\/strong>, there are many stables to take lessons and expert guides to rely on.<\/p>\r\n<h2>Explore the Gargano by mountain bike<\/h2>\r\n<p>There are many routes for exploring the spur of Italy by bicycle. The area that we recommend most of all for an unforgettable excursion on the Gargano is the <strong>hinterland north of <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.homegargano.com\/en\/discover-gargano\/locality-of-the-gargano\/vieste\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Vieste.<\/a><\/strong> In this area, moving away from the coast, there are flat stretches with expanses of olive groves, until you enter the <strong>Umbra Forest.<\/strong> Here there are numerous <strong>paths for mountain biking<\/strong> and to see the great <strong>biodiversity<\/strong> that this immense green lung holds. The arrival point of the tour is located at the artificial lake but. For those who are not tired it is possible to continue even further in the direction of <strong>Vico del Gargano<\/strong>. Another famous route is the one that starts from Vieste and arrives at the <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.homegargano.com\/en\/discover-gargano\/the-beaches-of-gargano-caves-coves-and-cliffs\/vignanotica-beach\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Vignanotica beach<\/a>, but beyond the more well-known itineraries, exploring the Gargano by mountain bike is an excellent idea for enjoying a sporting holiday.<\/p>\r\n<h2>Water sports on the Gargano<\/h2>\r\n<p>The Gargano is famous all over the world for its emerald beaches, so how can you not think of enjoying a holiday dedicated to physical activity by practicing water sports. If you love the sea and its creatures, we suggest you go <strong>snorkelling:<\/strong> the best place to do it is on the <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.homegargano.com\/en\/discover-gargano\/locality-of-the-gargano\/tremiti-islands\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Tremiti Islands<\/a>. Here you can observe the phenomenon of <strong>black corals<\/strong> and, if you wish, take diving lessons or be guided by experts to discover the seabed.<\/p>\r\n<p>If, on the other hand, you are more into sports on the surface of the water, then we suggest you practice windsurfing or kitesurfing, the best area to do it is that of Vieste, where the Mistral and Scirocco winds blow constantly but moderately. There are many facilities and <strong>schools<\/strong> in the area where you can rent equipment or get help from a teacher. In recent years, two other water sports that are absolutely worth trying have made their way, we are talking about <strong>SUP<\/strong> and <strong>electric surfing.<\/strong> In short, you are spoiled for choice and certainly there is no danger of getting bored.<\/p>\r\n<!-- \/wp:post-content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you love sport, we&#8217;re sure you don&#8217;t want to give it up even on vacation!
