Beach Tennis is a high-energy hybrid sport that blends the fast-paced action of tennis with the layout of beach volleyball. Played on a sand court with a raised net, the game uses solid paddles and a slightly depressurized ball that must never touch the ground. Because every shot is a volley, the rallies are quick, athletic, and often involve spectacular dives into the sand. It is primarily played as doubles, making it a highly social and accessible sport that is much easier on the joints than traditional hard-court tennis.
