Spanish to English translations [PRO] Tourism & Travel / tourism | | Spanish term or phrase: active tourism at sea | Please, could you tell me if this reads well in English?
The original Spanish title is: Turismo Activo en el Mar.
It is the title that presents all the range of activities that a nautical sports resort offers.
Thank you. |

I definitely wouldn't 'at sea'.
All at sea can have very negative connotations (being totally clueless, lost...) |

1 hr confidence:  peer agreement (net): +2 water sports
Explanation: this would include: sailing, windsurfing, waterskiing, boating, diving, para-sailing, snorkelling, water-polo etc.
You could also say: "marine activities", "marine recreation" or "on-the-water recreation".
I would definitely omit the 'tourism' and "at sea" means away from land, as a ship on a long passage, so it is not appropriate here. (Prepositions are difficult in any language)
