Activities of active leisure most often include the following: riding a bicycle, rollerskates, being engaged in sports activities. When looking at the situation of needs, the adolescents express a wish to spend their leisure in a more active, public way and to visit cultural institutions more often. It is noticed that traditions of festivals are fostered in families, however there is no tendency to organise leisure, very often passive recreation is selected, although after completion of the reserach it was established that there is a need to spend leisure with family in a more active way. It should be noted that more than a half of all the respondents indicated that their parents encourage them to take part in after-school activities which demostrates parents‘ interest in their child‘s occupation. It is obvious from the results obtained that the situation of availability of public spaces and occupation institutions within adolescents‘ residential area, according to their opinion, is satisfactory.
