Study Spanish and Surf El Salvador

School Locations

El Salvador – for tourism it is the Saviour. Undeveloped, real, and barely touched by tourism. 10 years ago tourism was the last thing on the mind of El Salvadors people as they tried to escape the bullets of a civil war. Now … 10 years of peace and a nation on the road to recovery means that now is the time to visit – before it is spoilt by mass tourism. E; Salvador does not lack for natural splendour, smoking volcanoes, Montecristo rain forests and its black sand beaches with some of the best surf waves in Central America, means that surfers have found the country … but few others. Now is the time,.

Our Three schools are located in La Libertad,  Santa Ana, and in the capitol, San Salvador. 

San Salvador, the capital has five markets; the most interesting are the Mercado Ex-Cuartel for handicrafts, hand-woven textiles and ceramics, and the Mercado Central for daily needs.
Santa Ana is a city of 500,000 and is surrounded by green rolling hills and mountains, that make it idea for coffee growing
La Libertad is only an hour from La Libertad and is a small seaside town ... with its famed surfing beaches!

Other major attraction for El Salvador include :

Montecristo Cloud Forest

The borders of El Salvador, Honduras and Guatemala converge in an area that receives 200cm (80in) of annual precipitation, experiences 100% humidity and rises to an elevation of 2400m (7900ft) - ideal conditions for the Montecristo cloud forest.
Oak and laurel trees grow to 30m (98ft), and their leaves form a canopy impenetrable to sunlight. Ferns, orchids, mushrooms and mosses coat the forest floor, and the local wildlife includes rare and protected spider monkeys, two-fingered anteaters, pumas, agoutis, toucans and striped owls.

Ruinas de Tazumal

The Mayan ruins of Tazumal, considered the most important and best preserved in El Salvador, are in the town of Chalchuapa. In the Quiché language the name Tazumal means 'pyramid where the victims were burned'. The excavated ruins on display here are only one part of a zone covering 10 sq km (4 sq mi), much of it buried under the town.
Archaeologists estimate that the first settlements in the area were around 5000 BC. The excavated structures date from a period spanning over 1000 years. The artefacts found at Tazumal provide evidence of ancient and active trade between Tazumal and places as far away as Panama and Mexico.
