The school in Tamarindo offers a variety of cultural activities,
afternoon trips, and weekend excursions. Each week, depending
on student interest and what is happening in the surrounding
area, the school makes sure that you have a chance to discover
the best the Costa Rica has to offer. Students are welcome to
participate in activities such as dance classes (Merengue, Salsa,
Marcado, & Cumbia), lectures, cooking classes, and "Intercambios"
(exchanges) with local "Ticos" (Costa Ricans) who
are learning English. There are also trips to local points of
interest in which all students are encouraged to participate.
Surfing

in surfing. You can hit the waves at a nearby beach
by joining our special Spanish

at one of the local shops that offer special rates
to our students.
