Why Spanish and surf? It’s a great way to spend time in Conil, mixing up the learning with some outdoor activities!  We work with the most popular language school in Conil – Academia Andaluza, which has an award with Cervantes for quality language learning.  Our students have always been very happy with the teaching and the extra cultural activities.

Even if you have never surfed before, or even spoken a single word of Spanish this is a fantastic program to join. It will give you a great sense of achievement both in the water and in the classroom.

Consistent waves all year round, make this a great surf destination.

Where?

Conil de la Frontera is a traditional fishing town located on the Costa del la Luz (Coast of Light). White houses go all the way down to a vast beach: the sand merges with the sea and disappears into the horizon. Those in the know, this town to take advantage of its amazing surf conditions, great beaches and laid-back atmosphere. It is kite surf and surf heaven, located a short distance from the major surf spots of Tarifa – one of the coolest places in the country – and the lesser know but equally awesome Canos de Meca.
