Spanish Schools 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!
