Summer means trips to the beaches and water sports, but also sports activities in and out of the water, not only are they fun, but they help burn a lot of calories.
See how many calories you can burn per hour doing the following popular activities and sports.
Beach volleyball
Ideal form of aerobic training that exercises the whole body and especially the legs and buttocks.
Calories per hour: 430
Beach Tennis
This is the new trend in beach sports and now you will find such courts in several organized beaches. Not only does it work out the whole body, but it also improves reflexes and concentration and is of course a good aerobic exercise.

Rackets
Depending on how hard you play, simple racquets can be an ideal cardio-friendly aerobic exercise. And of course they are fun!
Calories per hour: from 480 to 520
Beach soccer
A particularly tiring, but enjoyable team beach sport with intensity and speed. The movement on the sand increases the intensity of the aerobic effort, but also burns calories and exercises the thighs and calves. Just watch out for injuries
Calories per hour: From 600 to 650
Canoe
Aerobic exercise that shields the cardiovascular and respiratory system, exercising the entire upper body, starting with the arms, back and abs. If you do stand up canoeing (the well-known stand up paddle board, or SUP i.e. Stand Up Paddleboarding) then you exercise the whole body and burn a lot more calories.
Calories per hour: From 480 with the simple canoe up to 700 with the SUP
Seabike
You don't exactly call it a sport, but more of a fun activity that combines exercise with a walk in the sea. However, the resistance of water is much greater than that of air (on a normal bike on land), so the intensity is correspondingly greater, as well as the burning of calories. Of course, this is another aerobic exercise that provides a good thigh workout.

A demanding sport that of course needs to be learned with a teacher. But when you manage to start surfing then you will be doing one of the best aerobic exercises as water skiing exercises several muscle groups in both the upper and lower body (arms, thighs, abs).

In this sport you are not standing, but sitting, with of course plenty of activity inside the boat. It's not dangerous at all, of course, as long as you follow the rules and don't go crazy. As a highly technical sport, you will need to take both theoretical and technical training lessons at a school, starting with small boats, with your instructor first and then on your own. and back and abs.

Windsurfing
Also a difficult sport that requires a lot of patience, will, good balance and persistence and of course good guidance from a teacher until you learn it.
