Sports and leisure activities - California in 2024

Practical information : Move & Laze around California

Budget & Tips

Not surprisingly, nothing is free in the United States. Thus, the practice of sports in groups or in a gym is not free, for prices similar to those in France. Nevertheless, the coast is ideal for a brisk walk along the beach, jogging, or simply relaxing and sunbathing.

What's very local

In California, surfing is a must: more than a sport, it is a culture - even a state of mind - that has permeated all the Pacific beach towns. Moreover, whether they live in Los Angeles, Phoenix, or Salt Lake City, city dwellers are used to escape to the great natural spaces around them, conducive to hiking.

To be booked

If you want to take part in a yoga session or learn to surf, you don't need to plan far in advance; you just have to hope that your stay in the area coincides with the current course schedule. So, as soon as you arrive in a new city with an activity you might be interested in, be sure to ask about upcoming lessons or dates. If you want to attend a baseball, basketball or ice hockey game, make your reservations as soon as possible at www.ticketmaster.com, the reference in the field.

Tourist traps

Cut out the middleman: only book directly with the establishment, whether it's a sports association, a massage parlor or a tour company.
