Program description: |

Study Spanish and go Surfing in Panama! Our school is located in the stunning area of Bocas del Toro. This is located on the Caribbean coast, and is a number of beautiful islands just offshore. So you can learn Spanish and surf on a stunning Caribbean island paradise! And... it is renown to have the best surf around! (many say in the whole Caribbean!). There is surfing for everyone from beginners to advanced. Many of the breaks are only accessible by boat - so they are normally pristine, uncrowded, and clean waves. Bocas is the Panamanian province closest to Costa Rica, and a staggeringly beautiful place. Booming during the 19th and early 20th century, exporting marine turtle shell and bananas, it fell into economic decline and until relatively recently, remained undiscovered. Now it has become one of the most popular destinations in Panama (though remaining remarkable uncrowded compared with Cost Rica).
The islands offer the visitor a number of attractions. Everything from luxurious rain forests with an abundance of fauna and flora, sunny islands, beaches that compete with the Caribbean best, coral reefs in crystal clear water, mangrove islets in a lake-like scenery, guaymi indian villages and a national marine park that protects examples of the ecosystems and natural resources coexisting within the Archipelago boundaries, as attribute to our future generations.
Not only is the surfing here amazing - but so is the diving. In fact you will really enjoy the whole atmosphere. Its a mix of the Caribbean architecture, the local cuisine, the people and their festivities, that has made these islands an irresistible place. Know is the time to visit - before the world finds out about Bocas and the atmosphere changes!
