Golf and polo are what Sotogrande is known for, with eight courses nearby and a summer polo season you can watch for free. There is more to it than that. Boat charters and fishing trips leave from the marina, dolphin watching trips run along the bay, and the villages inland are a short drive away, from the castle at Castellar de la Frontera to the beach bars of Torreguadiaro. Beaches, walking trails, tennis and padel, weekend markets and Gibraltar all sit within easy reach, which makes planning a day here less about finding something to do and more about choosing.
