Enjoy an English language course in the Spanish Balearic islands at our language school on the island of Mallorca in the city of Palma de Mallorca.
The island of Mallorca is the most popular tourist destination in Europe! It is also arguably the most beautiful island in the Mediterranean, largely because of the stunning variety of its scenery, the warm hospitality of the islanders and the richness of its food and drink. Set in the beautiful bay of Palma, famous for its stunning sunsets, the city’s most imposing site is the huge 13th century Cathedral. This beautiful building is close to the 10th Century Arab baths – and the gateway to the city’s old quarter of narrow winding streets and ornate squares where orange and olive trees give shade to the many charming street cafés. Visitors today can benefit from the same inspiring beauty and tranquility that so impressed the composer Chopin, the poet Robert Graves and others before and after them.
The Mallorcans themselves are descended from a mix that includes Spanish, Arabs and Carthaginians, and today they share their island with people from all over Spain and Europe, as well as with a substantial population of South American and African migrants. There is a lively arts scene and a night life to suit any taste. There is a large sailing community and the sailing year culminates every summer when the city hosts the Copa del Rey yachting competition. Palma is historical and liberal, Spanish and cosmopolitan, nearly always sunny and always addictive. Wherever you are from, it will give you a warm welcome and you are certain to love it.
