Studying at Bahía Rica will give you the chance to practice with the locals and improve upon your learning in a fun and supportive environment. At Bahia Rica we offer beginners courses in Spanish.

In average you will receive 2 hours of classroom instruction and 2 hours of applied learning each day (Monday-Friday). Applied learning is where you can put your knowledge to use and reinforce what you’ve already learned. This might mean a scavenger hunt, a board game, volleyball on the beach or a walk in the neighborhood with your instructor. If you opt for the combined kayak and Spanish course, you will have the opportunity to use your newfound language skills with our Tico kayak guide.
