Summer 2023 Destinations
San Sebastian, Spain
San Sebastian has long been recognized as one of Spain's top destinations for the arts, gastronomy, and sports. Nestled between the north coast of Spain and the foothills of the Pyrenees, San Sebastian is referred to as Donostia in the native Basque language of Euskera. World famous artists like sculptor Eduardo Chillida and fashion designer Cristobal Balenciaga have found inspiration in this magical city that hosts our two and four week summer language and cultural immersion program.
Biarritz, France
The historic seaside city of Biarritz blends classic French elegance with a modern casual fashion. Known as the Surf Capital of Europe, it is acclaimed for its beaches, hiking trails, safety, and gastronomy. Biarritz and the surrounding Côte Basque has been a popular resort destination since European royalty chose the city as the summer destination of choice during the Belle Époque. Today, studying abroad in Biarritz can offer you the opportunity to experience the real daily comfort, culture, and lifestyle of coastal France.
