What you'll do

Overview

Try the fastest growing sport in the world, SUP, in the morning and learn to speak Spanish in the afternoon on this popular 7 night course suitable for all levels; you’ll be amazed at how much you pick up & how much fun you have when learning Spanish and SUP in Fuerteventura.

Make the most of your holiday as you learn Spanish & enjoy the sun and sea at the SUP (Stand Up Paddle Boarding) school where you will learn how to master the fastest growing water sport in the world from the best instructors.

Originally from Hawaii, SUP has become hugely popular worldwide and it is easy to see why. It is a mix of surfing and paddling, offering you a great way to see the sea and coast at the same time as giving you a full body workout. SUP is easy to learn and fun to practice.

Combining Spanish lessons with SUP lessons is a great way to learn the language. Spend part of your day at the Spanish school and learn Spanish in a fun and interactive way in small groups to make the most of your time in the classroom.

All Spanish teachers are qualified native Spanish speakers who have a real passion for teaching and use proven teaching techniques.

When your legs start to itch in the classroom, you can hit the water and release some energy under the excellent tutelage of your SUP instructors, there to guide you and help you gain techniques and confidence regardless of your level.

Accommodation is also included in the price and you will stay in a lovely surf house overlooking the ocean. The house has a fun, relaxed and sociable atmosphere. Perfect for those looking to meet like-minded people on a solo adventure in Spain.

Jorge

In the hopes of getting students out of the classroom and having fun while still learning the Spanish language, Jorge decided to combine his love of surfing with his knowledge of Spanish to do just that. Jorge's set up his Spanish school on the island of Fuerteventura, often dubbed the Hawaii of the Atlantic. The bright lovely classrooms are very close to your accommodation and your surfing classroom will change daily as you hit the best surf spots that day.
