Information about Herradura, Spain (Click to view)
La Herradura is a quiet and small village situated in a beautiful bay, 80km east of Malaga. This former fishing hamlet now offers facilities and services for visitors without having lost any of it's charm and friendly atmosphere. This part of Spain's long coast line is mostly popular with Spanish holiday-goers who seek mountains dotted with white-washed traditional villages, and long stretches of quiet beaches where one can practice many aquatic sports such as sailing and scubadiving, paragliding, and hiking and rock climbing in the mountains the whole year around.
From its dazzling beaches to its ancient castles, Spain is a country as diverse as the cultures which have influenced its art, architecture, music and lifestyle. It is a land where cathedrals and castles are interspersed with skyscrapers, where modern rock mixes with flamenco guitar, and night clubs compete with cozy "tapas" bars. Spain offers some of the world's most famous museums, resorts, and festivals, making it a unique and enchanting destination.
Participants: Wide age range. Mostly Europeans with some North Americans.
Other: The program consists of intensive Spanish course in La Herradura and 3 hrs/week horseback riding in groups in la Alpujarra.
