The cool night temperatures along the river banks encourage people from Seville to visit the many open air bars and clubs along the Guadalquivir, the largest river in Spain which crosses Seville’s centre. Enjoy Spanish music and meet lively people to practice your Spanish.

The traditional siesta time is also still fully in practice in Southern Spain during the summer months. During the summer you can practice many water sports in Seville. Rowing on the Guadalquivir River, canoeing, windsurfing, sailing and swimming. For those who prefer the mountains, the school organises weekend trekking in the region of the White Towns, about an hour away from Seville.

The school provides accommodation for Spanish summer courses in shared flats, with carefully selected Spanish host families and private apartments located at walking distance from the school. Students can walk to class every morning without using transport and enjoy Seville’s streets, squares and monuments. A colourful street life surrounds the school, which you can enjoy after class.
