Tennis activities in Africa

  1. Cercle Sportif

    If you're feeling energetic or need a workout, try the Cercle Sportif , where there are facilities for swimming, tennis and golf. However, be warned, they sometimes don't allow outsiders in for no apparent reason.

  2. A

    Royal Tennis Club

    King Hassan II loved his tennis, as witnessed by numerous portraits of the guy in all-white togs at this historic 1926 tennis venue complete with clubhouse and pool. Perfect your own royal backhand with helpful instructors on one of seven clay courts (or more, depending on your aim), including the centre court named after Moroccan tennis legend Younes el Ayanaoui. Mornings and evenings are usually best; four courts are lit at night.

  3. Tennis

    There are frequent tournaments at the courts at the botanical gardens (Jardim Tunduru, corner Rua da Imprensa and Rua da Rádio), where short- and long-term memberships can be arranged. Clube Naval has courts open to its members, and several of the top-end hotels have courts for their guests.
