Windsurfing is the other preferred sport which is practised in Tarifa. Our Windsurf Camp welcomes participants of all levels - even for those who have never done windsurf before. It is easy to get started and safe.
Wingfoiling is an exciting and relatively new water sport that has rapidly gained popularity in recent years. As this sport continues to conquer the world, we are thrilled to offer wingsurfing as part of our summer camp program.

Juanjo Sanchiz2024-11-09 Un gustazo haber podido compartir un mes de mi vida con gente tan maravillosa. He tenido la gran oportunidad de trabajar codo con codo con cada integrante de Lenguaventura y sólo tengo palabras de agradecimiento por el trato recibido. Encantando de formar parte de su equipo en otra ocasión. Evelyn Smeets2024-08-19 A memory making experience, with kids from all different countries! Martina Mueller2024-08-08 Wir können dieses Camp jedem empfehlen, der Lust auf Abenteuer, neue Sprachen und coole Sportarten hat! Der Mix aus Lernen und Freizeit war perfekt für unseren Sohn. Man konnte sich weiterentwickeln und gleichzeitig jede Menge Spaß haben. Die Camp-Atmosphäre war familiär und wirklich genial - man hat die Möglichkeit viele neue Freunde aus verschiedenen Ländern kennenzulernen. Es ist aber gut, wenn man schon etwas Camp-Erfahrung mitbringt. Markus möchte auf jeden Fall wieder kommen. julie du2024-08-06 Une vraie réussite! Tout d’abord Tarifa est une ville fantastique à une brasse de l’Afrique, belle, festive, accueillante, à échelle humaine, totalement orientée sur les sports nautiques avec des plages fabuleuses étirées sur des kilomètres et de généreuses conditions de vent. Le centre Lenguaventura est idéalement placé à deux pas de la plage et en lisière du cœur historique de la ville. En sus des cours de langues, les jeunes profitent d’un vrai melting-pot culturel et linguistique. Venus de partout dans le monde, ils sont visiblement plutôt à l’aise en anglais et communiquent dans cette langue ce qui garantit de vrais progrès. Ceux qui souhaitent progresser en espagnol ne seront probablement pas en reste. Les activités nautiques se déroulent sur un spot fantastique avec du top matériel et un encadrement à l’avenant. Tous les niveaux trouveront leur compte. Pour avoir accompagné notre fils sur site, nous avons pu constater tout cela. Pour le reste, ce qu’il a partagé avec nous (peu de détails mais un avis général) est un véritable enthousiasme sur l’ensemble du séjour qui met en avant de belles rencontres, de bonnes tranches de rigolade et des expériences qui font gagner en maturité + des progrès en funboard. Un très grand merci à toute l’équipe de Lenguaventura, garante de la réussite de ce séjour. Et bon vent pour les années à venir! S’il le souhaite je n’hésiterai pas à renvoyer mon fils l’année prochaine. Maria Del Carmen Delgado Pliego2024-08-06 Tras finalizar la experiencia como parte del equipo de Lenguaventura me queda un gran recuerdo de esta experiencia que sin duda quiero volver a repetir ✨ Lo más destacable, la diversidad de actividades que se hacen y el ambiente tan familiar que se respira. Irene, Adri, todo más que dicho ✨🤞🏼 Nes Quiro2024-08-05 Un campamento maravilloso con una ubicación céntrica en Tarifa, donde los participantes pueden practicar sus deportes acuáticos. Además, cuenta con numerosas actividades y excursiones muy enriquecedoras para conocer la zona de Cádiz. Ideal para adolescentes interesados en los deportes y actividades de interés cultural. Paul Collister2024-07-25 I recently had the pleasure of sending my son to Lenguaventura Camps, and the experience exceeded all of our expectations. Irene and her team were incredibly welcoming and made my son feel right at home. Lenguaventura offers a perfect blend of language learning and adventure activities, making it both educational and fun. The language classes were engaging and interactive, allowing my son to learn in a dynamic environment. My son has improved his Spanish skills improved significantly,. The adventure activities were the highlight of the trip. They particularly enjoyed the kite surfing lessons, and made great progress in the month that he was there. The camp's location in Tarifa provides a beautiful and conducive environment for these activities, with stunning beaches and a friendly atmosphere. The accommodations were comfortable and clean and the meals were nutritious and varied. Overall, Lenguaventura Camps provided a memorable and enriching experience for my child. He made new friends from around the world, improved his Spanish, and enjoyed countless adventures. I highly recommend Lenguaventura Camps to any parents looking for a comprehensive summer camp that balances education and fun perfectly. Natalia92024-07-25 Un campamento internacional 100%, Gabriel se lo ha pasado genial. Divertido, completo, con muchísimas actividades chulas y gente bonita. Se lleva consigo una experiencia fantástica para la mochila de su vida. El año que viene quiere repetir, Con eso digo todo. Muchas gracias a Irene y a toda la organización. Federica Cerato2024-07-25 This camp was one of the most unforgettable holiday my son has ever done! The location is wonderfu,. Tarifa is a nice village perfect for windsports lovers, not too big so that they can go around by themselves and fell free and independent. The team of Lenguaventura is a great team, available, kind and ready to enjoy. Pietro really appreciated the relationships established with all of them as well as with the instructors of the windsurf school. Moreover I was very happy because he was surrounded by boys and girls from all over the world and when he was back home he was speaking so many languages and happy for all the friends ha had known. I recommend the camp with Lenguaventura because it is a great experience that enriched the children, made them independent and responsible in an atmosphere of great fun, sport and culture. T2024-07-07 Super organised, great monitors and a memorable experience. When you have spare time you can play ping-pong, foosball, pool, and endless amounts of card and board games. Ready to meet them again next year. 🍣🍣🍣♥️😜 Súper organizado, monitores estupendos y una experiencia memorable. Cuando tengas tiempo libre podrás jugar al ping-pong, al futbolín, al billar y a un sinfín de juegos de cartas y de mesa. Listo para reencontrarnos con ellos el año que viene.Google rating score: 4.7 of 5, based on 33 reviews
Yes we do, especially if they come with an older brother or sister or if parents are sure that their kid/ kids can cope with being away from home. These young teenagers have to be aware that they will be amongst the youngest which is not a problem for the summer camp and hopefully neither for themselves.
Yes, we do, from/to the airport at Málaga. It is the busiest airport in Southern Spain. For students coming from the British Isles, Gibraltar is a possible option. We also fetch/drop off the teenagers at the airport in Jerez de la Frontera or Seville but for an additional cost.
Students travelling from/to the train station in Málaga will also be picked up/dropped off.
The nationalities vary between 12 and 20 per year. Hence our summer camp is very international.
…..and how many will be kitesurfers, windsurfers, or wingfoilers? What will their ages be, and how many boys and girls are attending?
We understand that as a parent, you want to know the specifics about the group dynamics at the camp. However, the exact number of participants and the breakdown by sport (kitesurfing, windsurfing, wingfoiling) and gender can vary slightly from session to session. Our camp typically welcomes a balanced mix of boys and girls, all between the ages of 14 and 17.
Rather than focusing on the precise numbers, we encourage you to trust in the enriching experience we’ve created. We carefully group the participants based on their interests and skill levels, ensuring that everyone is engaged and supported throughout their stay. Over the years, we’ve found that campers thrive in this environment, form strong friendships, and develop both personally and athletically, regardless of the exact group composition.
Rest assured, our priority is to create a positive, inclusive atmosphere where every camper, regardless of age or gender, feels comfortable and excited to explore their passions.
1 week: The one-week camp term is designed to introduce young people to the exhilarating world of overnight camps

3 weeks: Deepens camaraderie, fosters friendships, explores new skills, immerses deeper in camp community
4 weeks: Allows campers to engage in all available activities, creating an enriching experience, bond with community

As we enroll teens from 14 to 17 years of age, we always have teenagers in this age range. We have very often seen that it is not necessary for all of the same age to stick together. Sometimes the younger ones are born leaders and sometimes the eldest are not so mature as those who are one or two years younger. In our experience age is not always an issue.
Your child will not be the only one coming alone and we know there is nothing to fear, as kids coming alone are very open to new friendships and generally fit in with one another very quickly.
We understand the concern about the mix of nationalities. Some parents worry about there being too many of one nationality, while others fear their child might not have anyone who speaks their mother tongue. In our experience, this rarely becomes an issue. Kids naturally bond over shared interests and activities, often transcending language barriers. Even when students speak the same language, they come from diverse backgrounds, creating a natural cultural and linguistic exchange. At Lenguaventura, every student finds their place in the group dynamic, which is part of what makes the camp experience so unique and rewarding.
It is completely normal for some teenagers to need time to adjust. That’s why we give them the necessary space without putting too much pressure on them in the first few days - forcing integration often has the opposite effect. With patience, adaptation happens naturally, and in most cases, after just 2 or 3 days, students feel part of the group, often thanks to the support of their fellow campers. In many cases, it is their own peers who, with great empathy, help create a welcoming atmosphere and ensure everyone feels included.
Shyer participants receive support from our staff, which includes experienced educators trained in techniques to help them open up and integrate more easily.
Lenguaventura is more than just a summer camp – it’s an experience that motivates beyond the summer.
