Malaga 50 Plus Language Learning HolidaySpanish Language Holiday Course
Location On the Mediterranean coast in the heart of Andalucia, where flamenco and bullfighting originated, sits lovely sunny Malaga. Malaga’s climate is hot in the summer and warm in the fall and spring. Besides the expansive sandy beaches, Malaga is the ideal city to explore two of the most defining features of Spanish culture – flamenco dance and Spanish cuisine… this program has both! The city is also home to the new Picasso Museum, considered by many art critics to be the one of the most important Picasso galleries in the world. Malaga is also the perfect jumping off point for day-trips to nearby pueblos blancos— mountain villages with charming white-washed buildings, giving you the feeling you’re back in time in historic southern Spain. For those who want to explore other parts of Andalucia, the school will organize weekend trips to other well-known cities of the region – Granada and Seville. And Malaga is to perfect setting off point for more exotic destinations such as Morocco!Program The Malaga Spanish language holiday program is hosted by one of Spain’s most highly regarded institutions for Spanish language and cultural immersion. Our partner school provides 25 modern and well-equipped classrooms, comfortable residence accommodation with single, shared or executive rooms and executive suites, a restaurant-cafeteria, 30-seat cinema, dance studio, pool and sun terraces.
