Hoewel Malaga een populaire bestemming voor zonliefhebbers is, heeft ze altijd haar dorpse charme weten te behouden en is het nog steeds een vriendelijke woonomgeving voor studenten. Ervaar het beste van de Spaanse gastvrijheid, of het nou een late paellalunch in een strandtent is, een paardrijtocht op het strand bij zonsondergang of een wandeling langs de kleurrijke winkels in het autoloze gedeelte van het centrum. Eén ding is zeker: je zult genieten van de witte stranden en de zon.

PLAYA TAMARINDO EF Centro Internacional de Idiomas. Dankzij haar tropische klimaat en overvloed aan zon draait het leven in Playa Tamarindo om haar witte stranden, nationale parken en adembenemende bergen. Beklim een vulkaan, bekijk reuzenschildpadden of leer surfen. ‘s Avonds is het nachtleven van Tamarindo net zo wild als de golven, met strandfeesten en hippe discotheken. En mocht je daarna nog steeds niet in de ban van de ‘Latin beat’ zijn, dan zal de plaatselijke bevolking je leren salsadansen zodat je er nooit meer weg wilt.
