Benalmadena
Immerse your students in the Spanish language and culture with a Spanish school trip to Benalmadena. Our partner language school in Benalmadena provides total immersion Spanish language courses as well as host family accommodation. Spanish lessons are delivered in closed groups by highly qualified native speakers and will be tailored to meet your specific curriculum requirements.
Benalmadena is an attractive coastal town on the Costa del Sol situated at the foot of the Mijas mountains range. Originally a sleepy Andalusian fishing village with beautiful, whitewashed houses, Benalmadena has developed into a lively town which retains its old charm and character. The town is small enough to provide a peaceful and secure environment, while large enough to offer good shops and restaurants.
Benalmadena offers a wide range of facilities for all ages, such as an amusement park, a water park, an outdoor cinema, a shopping centre, and the popular Puerto Marina de Benalmadena.
