Spanish Courses in Playa del Carmen

Also Known as "Playa", this Caribbean fishing village on the Mayan Riviera is Cancun's laid-back neighbor at just 35 minutes away. Despite a rapidly growing population of 60,000 and increased popularity as a tourist destination, the habitants of "Playa" are committed to maintaining their city’s bohemian charm and relaxed pace. You'll enjoy the best of both worlds: a natural setting with all the restaurants and amenities a modern traveler could need.

The Fifth Avenue (Quinta Avenida), the city's main artery that runs parallel to the ocean, is filled with gastronomic and entertainment options, together with numerous shops and boutiques, all of which make this an obligatory meeting-place after several hours spent on the beach or on an excursion trip, prolonging the activity in Playa until dawn.

There is a moltitude of places to explore around Playa del Carmen. You can hop on the ferry to Cozumel for world-class scuba diving, explore an abundance of nearby Mayan ruins or head to Cancun for shopping and wild nightlife. Best of all are the city's white shores, crystal clear Caribbean waters and lush tropical vegetation that will make up your day-to-day landscape. It's a heavenly setting for learning about Mexican-Caribbean culture while immersing yourself in the Spanish language.

Our Spanish School in Playa del Carmen is just 6 blocks from the beach – need we say more? Better yet, classes can be held outside under thatched roofs amidst our own tropical gardens, so you can enjoy the full Caribbean experience. We organize a number of activities and excursions like horseback riding, windsurfing, yoga, movie sessions, cooking classes, snorkeling, beach volleyball and trips to historic Mayan sites.
