Pedras Tennis & Padel Academy

Cabanas de TaviraPadel courts

What to expect

The academy’s courts sit within the Pedras da Rainha development at Cabanas. Its public booking service lists both tennis and padel and offers private lessons and courses as separate activities. This gives visitors a documented way to arrange racket sports while staying in Cabanas or elsewhere around Tavira, rather than relying on accommodation-only sports facilities.

Choose the sport, court time and any coaching separately in the academy’s booking system. The club specifically asks players to go to the clubhouse before playing, so allow time for check-in rather than arriving directly at the court when your slot begins. Equipment hire is listed, useful for people visiting without rackets. A reservation here covers the academy activity: it should not be interpreted as permission to use Pedras da Rainha’s pools or other accommodation amenities.

Planning your visit

  • Check in at the clubhouse first.
  • Tennis and padel are bookable.
  • Equipment hire is listed.
