Nice, France
France ranks first on the list of the best sustainable destinations for outdoor sports in Europe. It's not only about the glitz and glam of the Cannes Film Festival or the Monaco Grand Prix in this town. Nice is wonderfully located between the Mediterranean and the foot of the French Alps, making it ideal for a variety of excursions.
There are plenty of things that you can do more than just swimming and sunbathing on the beaches in Nice. Numerous water sports, such as sailing, jet skiing, water skiing, snorkeling, and scuba diving are great in the warm Mediterranean Sea. What's even better? Actually, none of this is very pricey. For instance, the Villa St. Exupery Hostel offers a 5-hour diving excursion with all the necessary gear for a reasonable 45€. And no prior knowledge is required! This is a really fantastic offer to experience the underwater world of the lovely Mediterranean, especially for first-timers.
Looking for some outdoor fun on your vacation? Then head to the French Alps, which are located behind the French Riviera's city. You can even try your hand at some adventure sports while being treated to some beautiful sights. Here, skiing is very popular in the winter, and canyoning is also quite popular. Nice is a really great destination for your European outdoor sports vacations overall.
