You can go ponytrecking or diving, climb mountains or play golf. You can choose a holiday with lots to do or, if you prefer, you can do something quieter such as stay on a large boat: and do fishing. If you want to improve your English while you're on holiday, there are outdoor and sport holidays that include English lessons.
There are also very special interests which are called environmental. They concern people who care much for things like air the land, the sea, rivers, animals and plants, buildings and people. They have their practical holidays such as cleaning canals or planting trees. They are not paid for this work.
A lot of people are interested in art. These are amateur painters, musicians or actors. To be better painters or musicians they join courses, sometimes on more usual subjects. e.g. batik (a way of printing colours on cloth) or making cloth, their own paper, ink, working with wood, etc.
There are plenty of other kinds of activities too: you can learn to use a computer, do archeology. In Scotland for example you can go on a "whisky trail". This is a special tour of the whisky distilleries, which are the places w here whisky is made.
In Britain many schools, language summer schools, colleges and universities organize all sorts of holidays with accommodation, for all ages at holiday time.
