Learn Spanish in Cádiz, one of the oldest cities in Europe, surrounded by the Atlantic.
Cádiz sits on a narrow peninsula with the ocean on almost every side. Our schools here are CLIC Cadiz and K2 Internacional, both close to the old town, the beaches and the relaxed Andalusian way of life.
Why Cádiz is a great place to learn Spanish
Cádiz is compact: you walk everywhere, and after a few days you start recognising people in the street. The people of Cádiz are known for their humour and warmth, which makes practising Spanish easy and fun. It is a good choice if you want an authentic Andalusian experience without the size of a big city.
- History Explore a city founded some 3,000 years ago: the cathedral, the Torre Tavira with its camera obscura, and the old quarters of El Pópulo and La Viña.
- Beaches La Caleta is right in the old town; the long sandy beach of La Victoria is ideal for a swim after class.
- Food and fiesta Try fried fish and fresh seafood, and experience Carnival in February, one of the most famous in Spain.
