Cádiz is a small quiet 3.100 years old city with about 140.000 inhabitants. In Cádiz there are not many tourists, so you can enjoy your stay in an authentic Spanish city. Moreover Cádiz has a very pleasant climate and the sun is guaranteed all year round.
The people of Cádiz are proud of the 10 kms. of fine sand which lie at their very door-step. Beaches such as La Victoria and La Caleta form part of the scenery of the city and of the very lives of its people.
In the province of Cádiz, you can experience authentic Andalusian folklore, in the many shows featuring flamenco dancing and singing, in the many ferias and of course, in the famous Cádiz city carnivals, which every year transform the city into one big party. At the same time, you just have to try the famous wines of Jerez and Sanlúcar to accompany one of the many traditional dishes of the area their excellent fish and seafood being particularly noteworthy.

>> ACTIVITIES IN CADIZ
We believe it is essential that our pupils get to know the city they are studying in and for this reason we organise regular guided tours to the historic city centre, museums, churches and other places of interest.
Cádiz, with a population of 140000, is a city with a very active and appealing cultural life - flamenco dancing and singing, theatre festivals, cinema, folklore and opera and theatre seasons. All such activities are accessible to our pupils who are promptly informed of the events which take place in Cádiz so that they can take part in them.
Every week we organise various extra curricular activities, like visiting the most important places in Cadiz, the cathedral, Tavira tower, la Caleta etc.
Also we go out for meals together and enjoy the delicious gastronomy of Cadiz, which is a compilation of Andalusia’s most appetising dishes. The produce of the mountains and the sea, accompanied by outstanding wines, will transform any visit into a delicious experience.
