Learn French and go surfing in the Caribbean! Guadeloupe is a Caribbean paradise. It was originally named Karukera , "Island of beautiful waters", by the Caraïbe Indians it lives up to its name! Now part of the French West Indies (yes we speak French and have the Euro) Guadeloupe is renown for its sun, laid back island French culture, stunning beaches, and of course it superb surf!
Our school is based in Sainte-Anne, and our surf lodge just 12 miles away in Saint Francois. There is surf both in Sainte-Anne and Saint Francois - and by being able to stay at either location you get to experience two parts of our beautiful island.
Sainte - Anne is a small seaside village of some 20 000 inhabitants on the southern coast of Guadeloupe (Grande-Terre). Sainte - Anne has always been known for its magnificent beaches; but in addition to the dazzling beauty of its coastal areas, there lies a fascinating and rich inland heritage awaiting your discovery: the cottage industries craftsmen, the former windmills of by-gone times, the quaint country atmosphere, the fabulous vegetation in the "Grands-Fonds" area, the land-based activities, and much more.
Saint Francois is a smaller village with a great variety of architecture and a interesting diversity of traditional and tourist activities. Life revolves around around the old market, with its traditional artisans and tradesmen, and fishermen returning to sell their catch each day. And of course as well as the superb breaks to surf on, their is protected beaches to laze on such as "baie Olive", "anse à la Barque", "anse à la Gourde", "plage des Salines",
Both locations have a excellent range of other activities to treat yourself to. There is jungle hikes, sea kayaking, sailing to deserted islands, scuba diving, parachuting, sea kayaking, wind surfing, kite surfing, Creole cooking, Creole dance and music and more...
Guadeloupe - once you have come, you have found paradise on earth.
