New sports facilities on the beaches of Águilas
Better equipment and infrastructures could lead to more Águilas beach sports tournaments
The local Town Hall has completed a project to improve the sports equipment on beaches in Águilas, encouraging healthy activities among both residents and visitors.
The facilities installed include two beach football pitches, 4 beach volleyball courts, 4 beach handball pitches and 4 beach tennis courts, while there are also other additions such as 2 marker buoys, mobile stands for up to 110 people, 5 shaded marquees, 2 storage containers, 2 tripod-mounted stopwatches and an inflatable finish line arch (see image).
It is hoped that apart from augmenting the level of services provided at the beaches and promoting participation in open-air sports activities, these new features will also attract events and competitions while at the same time favouring the de-seasonalization of tourism in Águilas.

Águilas boasts 28 kilometres of coastline, with many fine, sandy beaches, sheltered coves and unspoilt natural beaches. It is a great summer favourite with Spanish holidaymakers, so always has a superb programme of concerts and activities throughout the summer, as well as the biggest carnival in the Region of Murcia, 40 days before Semana Santa (Easter.)
Throughout the year it also has a number of museums and historical attractions, a castle with fabulous views overlooking the bay and several other points of interest, all of which make it an good place to visit for days out. Throughout the year the tourist office runs monthly guided tours and the route of the railways, which explores the railway history of the town.
The tourist information office is located in the Plaza de Antonio Cortijos, just a short walk from the sea front and Plaza de España, a cool, shaded space in which to enjoy a coffee.
