Learn Spanish in Samara
If
you decide to study Spanish in Samara, you’ll find yourself in a small
beach town in the Nicoya Peninsula, on the western, or Pacific, coast of
Costa Rica. Samara is relatively easy to reach from San Jose by bus (5
hours), and local communications are good, with a paved road from Nicoya. The
biggest attraction for Spanish students in Samara is without a doubt the
long, wide beach. Samara’s bay is sheltered by a coral reef, which makes
it safe for all kinds of water sports, such as windsurfing, sport fishing,
kayaking, swimming, diving, snorkeling, surfing.... The beach has also
been awarded the Blue Flag in recognition of the clean sand and water. All
in all, Samara beach is considered one of the safest and prettiest in
Costa Rica. Outside
your Spanish classes, you’ll finds plenty of things to do. Samara is a
thriving tourist resort with plenty of hotels, restaurants, bars and
discos, but it has also retained its charm as a bustling farming and
fishing center. It’s a small community, so you’ll find that it’s not
too difficult to get to know the local people and to practise your Spanish
by chatting to them. Unlike many tourist resorts in Costa Rica, the
businesses in town are still mainly in the hands of local “Ticos”.
Many
Spanish language students come to Samara to combine their Spanish studies
with surfing classes. While Samara is great for surfing in its own right,
you’ll find that if you progress enough, you’ll be able to try your
luck on the nearby pros’ beach, Playa Camaronal, just 12 km south. The
other favorite activity of Spanish students in Samara is to explore the
neighboring towns and beaches in the Guancaste region. But, whatever you
do during your Spanish course in Samara, you can be sure you’re not
going to be bored!
