Hey Reddit,

I’m planning to relocate to European mainland from the UK and would love some advice from anyone living in or familiar with warm cities year-round that also have great gyms for bodybuilding. I’m talking about well-equipped facilities, serious bodybuilding culture, and ideally a fitness community that’s pretty active.

Here’s what I’m looking for:

•	Warm climate year-round – Preferably places where it doesn’t dip too much in the winter.
•	Proximity to the beach – I love the idea of hitting the gym, then relaxing by the beach, or even integrating outdoor workouts with that beachfront vibe.
•	Low crime rate – I’m looking for somewhere safe to live and train, so safety is a key factor.

If you have recommendations for specific cities or even particular gyms that stand out in bodybuilding, I’d really appreciate it. Bonus points if the place has a good expat community or other like-minded fitness folks!

Thanks in advance for any tips or suggestions!

Can anyone identify this group, or their nationality/ethnicity from this photograph?
