Water Sports Camp for Children |

Nautical Club has a long history. It was founded in 1973 near Alicante by a group of enthusiasts of water sports trying to spread their passion for the sea. The Nautical school is located to the North of the Alicante bay, just near the Albufereta Beach, sheltered by the sea on a plain sea area.
The Nautical Club is an organisation officially approved by the Valencia Sailing Federation and, therefore, it follows the obligatory parameters in training, safety, material, and facilities: a trainer for every seven students, safety boats, own sea area limited by the coastal authorities, different boat types, safety coordinator, etc.
The Sailing and Windsurfing School has a qualified and highly experienced team; trainers are, in many cases, elite competitors with an important sports curriculum.
Nautical club has been chosen by the Puma Team of the Round the World Tour Alicante 2008 as the official Sailing school, recognising thus the school’s role in the world of sailing and its work promoting water sports. The Club facilities have showers and changing rooms, activity room, and classrooms for theory lessons with different audiovisual means, as well as café and restaurant.

The aim of our classes is to create a fun environment for children to learn Spanish, creating real communicative situations through games, puzzles, comics, songs, arts and crafts, theatre, videos, etc.
Each afternoon, the children will attend Spanish lessons lasting for 2½ hours, working with materials fully adapted to their specific needs.
They will have the chance to study a variety of different themes (family, friends, school life, animals, sports, holidays and free time), creating their own vocabulary bank as they progress through the course.
Our learning system develops children’s abilities through a comprehensive approach that deals with each discipline in language learning: listening, reading, writing and – above all - speaking.
What is most important is that children learn to communicate in Spanish with new phrases and vocabulary that allow them to express themselves.
The method and materials we use during classes are totally adapted to the children’s age, with a rewarding and attractive design that makes the classes dynamic and gives the children the opportunity to be key players in their own learning process.
Different levels will be created so that students can reap full benefit from their lessons. Our aim is to offer classes of quality, without forgetting that the children are on a summer course – they are not only here to learn, but also to have fun.

Living with a Spanish family is one of the best ways to get to know the country, including its culture and its people. It will also allow students to practice the Spanish language in a natural way.
The majority of the host families are near the school, around 10 or 15 minutes walking. If students live more than 20 minutes walking, we provide them with bus tickets to go to the school. All the quarters of the city are connected to the centre by urban buses running every 10-15 minutes.
The families are selected and visited regularly by our staff. In all of them, students will find a warm atmosphere that will help them get integrated into the family and city life very quickly. Families usually have children with a similar age to the students.
Students will have a single room or a twin room for friends or for two students from the same family coming together.
