Program Description:
Malaga
Enroll in EF’s Spanish courses in Malaga and discover authentic Mediterranean culture in the Costa del Sol’s premier resort city.

Malaga is a welcoming language school housed in a traditional Mediterranean villa in the lovely Pedregalejo district. Study Spanish at a school that is literally steps from the beach and a short walk from the stores on Calle Larios, the city center’s slick pedestrian boulevard. When classes finish for the day you can head to the beach, a bustling café, or take in the view from atop an 11th century Moorish fortification.
The unique red façade school in Malaga, tucked behind wrought-iron gates and surrounded by lemon trees, plays host to one of our most intimate and charming language centers.  Spanish courses here will be taught in modern facilities by master teachers with an expert style of instruction. In addition to traditional Spanish courses, special interest classes in Flamenco Dancing and Spanish tourism are offered in Malaga.

Jewell of the Costa del Sol
Malaga is a coastal city steeped in tradition but buzzing with life. Here the relaxed pace of an Andalusian beach town is balanced with the spice of traditional Spanish nightlife. Fresh seafood is always on the menu in Malaga, but EF students quickly pick up the habit of extending paella lunches into the early evening. There is also plenty of opportunity for lounging on the beach or trying to spot signs of Picasso’s influence on the streets of the artist’s hometown.
Malaga is a city where the mid-day siesta proudly lives on, and Roman and Moorish ruins share the landscape with the sparkling Mediterranean Sea. Enjoy a shopping experience along the leafy downtown boulevards. Walk among the ruins of the Roman Theater of Malaga, constructed thousands of years ago. Kick back and spend some time relaxing on the city’s golden beaches.  EF Malaga students will soon discover why Picasso found inspiration in this city.

Activities
Although life in Malaga revolves around the Mediterranean coastline, beyond the golden shores is a city shaped by elegant Andalucían architecture and ancient ruins. The energy in this city is what you’d expect from a southern Spanish city; lively, boisterous and brimming with charm.
