Destination guide · Best: Spring & autumn (Sep–Nov, Mar–May)

Australia came late to padel and is sprinting to catch up, with Sydney leading the charge. Outdoor courts, a beach-sport culture that gets the appeal instantly, and a climate that lets you play almost year-round. The scene is fresh enough that you can feel it forming — and few cities reward a between-matches day off like this one.
