Situated in the centre of the Asturian coastline, Gijon is the ideal place for adventure lovers.
Among the water sports Gijon offers are sailing and scuba diving, which can be practised in the Estacion Nautica Gijon Costa Verde. You can also enjoy yourself on land hiking, driving a quad, horse riding, paragliding, hot-air ballooning, just to mention a few.
Gijon is also well known for its "merenderos" (outdoor, picnic-style restaurants), where visitors can enjoy the open air. Or you can take part in an "espicha", a typical party in which an informal buffet-style meal is shared with friends and family.
In addition, you can visit the "llagares" (traditional cider presses), where cider is produced.
