Lanzarote Activities
Club La Santa offers a comprehensive range of sporting and non-sporting activities and on arrival you will be given a list of the week's organised events. There are also numerous non-organised sporting activities which you can use as you wish. In addition, Serpentine arranges a full list of our own activities, primarily catering towards running, swimming, biking and social. Some events, both Club La Santa and Serpentine, require booking in advance, but for the majority you can just turn up.
It is useful to find out where the Sports Booking is. Here, after handing in your flight ticket as a deposit, you will be given a numbered tag which you can use all week to hire/book sporting equipment (tennis, squash or badminton racquets and courts, bikes etc.) Any events which require booking are made in the Sports Booking Hall. Serpies will also have our own noticeboard outside the Sports Booking.
Most activities are free, however for some off-site ones, such as scuba diving, golf, surfing etc. there is a charge.
Running
We will take at least one running coach with us and there will be organised training sessions at the track and over various distances on the local roads as well as regular, group recovery runs. Club La Santa also organise a half-marathon each week.
Swimming
We have dedicated lanes reserved in the Olympic swimming pool every day, when Serpentine swimming coaching will also be available. You can also use the Olympic pool at other times during the day, except when some lanes may be reserved for other parties (see timetable at the pool).
Cycling
Serpentine will organise a range of group cycle rides with leaders, to cater for as many abilities as possible. There is also the opportunity to hire bikes there for the day and cycle independently (both road and mountain bikes available). However, for those cycling with the Serpie groups, it is recommended that you read our information about group riding and attend the initial briefing session.
