SPORT

 

We offer a full sports infrastructure for groups of recreational and professional athletes alike. And to the delight of all your guests, every activity at Aminess is just a stone’s throw from the sea – from the tennis courts, football pitches and paved cycling paths to the sports halls of Novigrad. Sports groups staying at Aminess’ hotels and campsites can head off on a kayak trip or (after a short drive) surf the waves of Pelješac. Browse our sports packages for training sessions, or simply for an active holiday.
