If you've always imagined Spain as a warm, Mediterranean paradise, you should consider studying Spanish in Alicante. With some of the most beautiful beaches in Europe, Alicante lies between the mountains and the sea and basks in mild temperatures year round.

Alicante is at once a tranquil and lively city that captivates the imagination with its rich history. The same seaside air that you'll enjoy first attracted the Romans, enticed the Arabs to stay for more than 500 years and was finally reclaimed by the Christians in the 13th century. Come celebrate Alicante's past during Las Hogueras, a lively festival during which incredible papier maché sculptures are erected and then burned amidst parades and luminous fireworks! Learn Spanish in Alicante and get to know an intimate, medium-sized city with an unbeatable climate, delicious food and warm, friendly inhabitants ready to welcome you as their own.
