Action Outdoors Launches New 2025 Summer Activity Holidays

Action Outdoors, the UK arm of the not-for-profit UCPA, with centres across France and beyond, has launched its 2025 summer holidays with the usual all-inclusive value that guests return year after year for.

Holidays include hiking, mountain biking, rock climbing and mountaineering to kite surfing, sailing and scuba diving as well as golf, tennis and horse riding, both in the mountains and on the coast.

The more recently launched UCPA Planete centres, located in places such as Morocco, Egypt, Portugal, Spain, Sicily and Greece, offer year round activity holidays with the same all-inclusive concept.

UCPA Lacanau, located on the Atlantic coast of France, has recently re-opened following major renovations and is a popular centre for golf, as well as tennis and surfing.

Every holiday is all-inclusive, which means accommodation (either in shared or twin rooms) on a full-board basis with three meals a day. Equipment rental and instruction or guiding is also included with the majority of holidays. The centres provide a friendly and social atmosphere, perfect for meeting new people and relaxing after a day outdoors.

Managing Director of Action Outdoors, David Robertson, said: “Our summer programme continues to grow and now offers the most comprehensive choice of activity holidays across France for anyone looking for our all-inclusive packages. Courses are available for all levels, whether learning a new skill or trying out our advanced and expert holidays in the mountains or the sea. Our UCPA Planete centres are now offering incredible all year round holidays in the sun, all at the amazing value the UCPA is well-known for. We enjoy many happy returning customers every year but the word is spreading fast – 2024 was our busiest ever and we look forward to welcoming even more new UCPA visitors in 2025”.
