Discover the Best of Active Czechia This July!
Summer is the perfect time to cool off with water sports on the country's lakes, rivers, and reservoirs, whether you prefer paddleboarding, kayaking, sailing, or wakeboarding.
If you're visiting Czechia this summer, you'll discover far more than world-class football. The country is also celebrating a remarkable sporting achievement, with Czech tennis making history at Wimbledon as Linda Nosková defeated fellow Czech Karolína Muchová in a historic ladies' singles final.
Congratulations to both players on an unforgettable championship that highlights the strength of Czech tennis on the world stage.
Whether you're planning an active holiday, a relaxing wellness escape, or a sporting getaway, Czechia offers something for every visitor.
For golfers, one destination deserves a place at the top of your list. Most UK golfers have never considered the Moravian-Silesian Region, but that is about to change. Thanks to Ryanair's direct flight from London to Ostrava, you can reach Central Europe's largest golf destination in under two hours, with no transfers, no connections, and no crowds.
From championship courses set against stunning natural scenery to outstanding hospitality and excellent value, the Moravian-Silesian Region offers an unforgettable golfing experience. Here's what awaits when you land.
Ostrava Airport (OVA) operates direct flights from London with Ryanair, making the Moravian-Silesian Region one of the most straightforwardly accessible golf destinations in Central Europe. From the airport, Ostrava city centre is 25 minutes away, and the region's top golf resorts are reachable in under 30 minutes. No long transfers. No Prague layover. Just golf.
Ostrava is one of Czechia's most underrated cities and well worth an evening or two. The Dolní Vítkovice district, a former industrial complex now reimagined as a cultural hub, is unlike anything else in Central Europe: it features blast furnaces, an interactive science centre, and the Bolt Tower offering panoramic views across the city. The Gallery of Fine Arts houses a Gustav Klimt and is worth the detour. The city also hosts the Colours of Ostrava festival (15th –18th July), headlined this year by Twenty One Pilots, Lorde, and Moby, set against the Dolní Vítkovice industrial backdrop.
From outdoor adventures and historic celebrations to relaxing escapes and sporting excitement, July is the perfect time to discover everything Czechia has to offer.
