Estudios publicados en nuestro país recogen que las actividades físico-deportivas figuran entre las más elegidas por los ciudadanos para ocupar el tiempo de ocio. Además, en los reconocidos y periódicos estudios sobre los hábitos físicos de los españoles del sociólogo García Ferrando aparece la denominada natación recreativa entre las primeras posiciones en las últimas décadas. Este dato es el punto de partida de este trabajo en el que se pretende analizar y reflexionar sobre qué prácticas físico-deportivas abarca este concepto. Utilizando distintas evidencias, el objetivo de este trabajo es indagar en la recreación acuática, su andadura en nuestro país desde sus orígenes, los factores que determinan su evidente evolución y las tendencias a las que se ha visto encauzada. Bien desde la influencia del movimiento Deporte para Todos hasta los efectos de la posmodernidad, o bien desde el juego como esencia hasta la perspectiva integral de bienestar, el deambular de la recreación en los equipamientos acuáticos en nuestro país se ha estado nutriendo de factores diversos desde sus inicios en la pasada década de los 80.
Palabras clave. Recreación acuática, conceptualización, ocio, equipamientos acuáticos.
Abstract. Studies published in Spain show that physical activities and sports are among the most frequently chosen activities by the public to spend their leisure time. In addition, in the well-known and periodic studies about the physical habits of the Spaniard conducted by the sociologist García Ferrando, recreational swimming has been appearing on the top positions during the last decades. This fact is the starting point of the present study, which aims to explore and reflect on the physical activities and sports involved in this concept. Different sources will be used to reach the purpose of the study, which wants to explore aquatic recreation: its evolution in Spain since its inception, the factors that have determined its considerable growth in popularity and the actual trends it presents. From the influence of the Sport for All movement to the effects of postmodernism, or from the essential meaning of play to the holistic view of well-being, since its conception in the 1980s, the evolution of recreation in aquatic facilities in Spain has been nourished by different factors.
Key Words. Aquatic recreation, conceptualisation, leisure, aquatic facilities.
