Learn Spanish and Surf has partnered with ISLS – Spanish Institute to bring you a great
teen Spanish & Surf camp. ISLS is a world leader in Spanish Immersion Programs. Over
the past 18 years they have worked with thousands of students and parents to set up
amazing summer educational programs. The Teen Spanish & Surf Camp is designed to
combine learning the Spanish language with fun, adventurous and safe surfing
experiences.

The Teen Spanish & Surf is a great Spanish immersion camp for high school students
looking to improve their Spanish ability, while at the same time either learning to surf or
developing their existing surfing abilities. Students will have opportunities to use the
Spanish skills they are learning and will have surfing lessons at various beaches,
including Playa Dominical, Costa Rica  which is one of the best surf breaks in Central
America . In many cases the camp will have the beaches to themselves with only the
students and surf instructors in the water.

Spanish classes are in small groups for four hours a day, Monday through Friday. Each
student is given an oral and written evaluation to place them in the correct level of
Spanish class. All classroom materials, including Spanish workbooks, are included.

Four afternoons a week are set aside for
surfing . The camp starts out at Playa Dominical
and
then visits other beaches the remaining days. Students who have never surfed before will
begin their lessons while those who already know how will break off with other instructors
for more advanced lessons. Surf boards are provided during these times for all students.
Those that have their own boards are welcome to bring them along.   

In Dominical students are housed together, along with their counselors at a local three
star eco resort. It is within walking distance to the school and the beach. All lodging is
shared with
two or three students per suite . There is a swimming pool where students
can relax and hang out when not in classes or surfing. Internet connection is also
available at the reception area.

On the weekends, students take part in a two day adventure tour. Each weekend you will
visit a different area of Costa Rica. Each trip is unique so that students can experience
the diversity of the country and use the Spanish language skills they have been learning.
Students who sign up for multiple weeks will never do the same tour twice.

The Teen Surf & Spanish camp includes the following: Four hours per day of Spanish
instruction, all study materials, four half-day surf lessons per week, use of surfboards,
lodging in a three star eco resort, weekend adventure tours, evening cultural activities,
airport pick up and drop off, three meals per day, all in country transportation,
health/travel insurance  and bilingual guides.
