LEARN SPANISH AND SURFING IN COSTA RICA !

Have you dreamed of studying abroad? Now you can take education up a notch by enrolling in one of the courses offered in the beautiful country of Costa Rica. Studying Spanish at your university? Talk to your registrar or the Study Abroad office about taking a university level course in Costa Rica to earn those credits. Not in school, but always wanted to learn another language? Need a vacation? Costa Rica Surf Camps can combine the two and include surfing lessons and you have the perfect package.



In the paradise-like surroundings of the Costa Rica Surf Camps, you’ll spend two hours a day in classroom instruction in Spanish and then the adventure begins! The learning curve is ramped up when you spend two hours with fellow students in applied learning: board games, scavenger hunts, beach combing, strolling around the village chatting and shopping - all the while practicing your Spanish. You will be immersed in a culture where you will quickly learn to use your new language. What a great classroom! The sights and sounds of the Costa Rica village - like bongos, flutes, guitars and the voices of the local artisans -will surround you and you’ll quickly pick up words and phrases.



Adventures in education don’t end with just the academics! At Costa Rica Surf Camps you can combine your need to study Spanish with your desire to learn to surf. With their program you’ll add a day of learning the safety and technical information about surfing – on land. Then you’ll practice paddling and balancing in the water with Costa Rica Surf Camps qualified staff. With Costa Rica’s location close to the Equator, anytime of year is perfect for surfing. Warm water and gentle waves is the ideal way to begin what may become a lifetime passion. At the Costa Rica Surf Camps your surfboard rental, books, instruction materials, and hotel accommodations are included in the price of the course. When you’re not surfing you can enjoy a hike and see the spectacular, abundant wild life, or kayak on one of Costa Rica’s many rivers.



Go online and check out the website www.laescueladelsol.com for other fantastic programs offered at the Costa Rica Surf Camps. You can take learning to a higher level in an environment that makes learning fun. These Costa Rica Surf Camps include other activities such as waterfall hiking. Costa Rica has many beautiful waterfalls, some of them with their own natural pools. Surrounded by the tropical beauty of the land you can enjoy a cool swim under the falls.



You might choose to combine your Spanish learning with a program that includes yoga or learning Poi (fire dancing). Whatever program you decide on, at Costa Rica Surf Camps you will have the vacation of a lifetime and will take home, not only the language of the country, but the memory of the wonderful people and places and the natural beauty of Costa Rica.
