Scuba diving
Sharing nerves ahead of the first immersion and communicating via hand signals underwater are great bonding experiences. There are different ways to try out scuba diving for the very first time. The most common is an introduction to diving experience in which the instructor will tell you all the basics and then accompany the group underwater.
Raft building
If you are looking for an original activity for your business event, raft building is it. On the beaches along the Malaga coastline, your group will be split into two teams. Each team is given large cans, ropes and wooden boards and then asked to make their own vessel. Once it is complete, they will have to put it to the test on the water and then race against the other team. A wonderful opportunity to get colleagues competing against each other and having a whole lot of fun.
Paddle surfing
Paddle surfing is a great activity for everyone, even people who haven’t tried water sports before. Following a short introduction, your group will hop on their boards and, while kneeling or standing, paddle their way through the water.
Kayaking
If you’re looking for an activity that combines relaxation, gentle exercise and beautiful landscapes, kayaking is a great choice. The sport is ideal for everyone, regardless of whether they have kayaked before and their fitness levels. A wonderful way to get out on the crystalline waters of the Mediterranean.
Race driving
In the Costa del Sol there are a number of tracks where you can go karting, first taking part in classifying rounds and then the grand final. If your group is keen to go even faster, you could always take them to Circuito Ascari in Ronda where they can race in models including the Lotus Elise, Porsche and BMW M6.
Golf
The Costa del Sol is nothing short of paradise for golf lovers. But what lots of people don’t know is that it’s also the perfect activity for incentive trips. It doesn’t matter whether your group has golf experience or not, as all the courses in the Costa del Golf have got their own instructors and teachers.
