Almost all camps are usually held in summer, from the last week of June to the first week of September. There are also options for camps for Easter or the Christmas holidays, also known here as casales.

The aim of these camps is to help children improve their level of English or even learn to live in Spanish while having fun at the same time.

Holidays are for relaxing and having fun, so we look forward to filling their summer with good times and best of all, learning English in a completely different way.

What types of english camps are in Barcelona?

In Barcelona we have 4 types of English camps

- Day camps: These are camps that take place during the day hours, where the children do not stay overnight. They are traditionally known in Spain as summer camps. In Barcelona you will have 2 options, children's camps suitable for children between 3 and 10 years old, where they combine play activities, workshops, sports, painting, and much more with English lessons. In many cases all the activities are also held in English, although you will also find camps where Spanish is spoken too. The usual schedule is from 9.00 am to 2:00 pm, with the possibility of adding some extra hours if you like.

If your children are older, there are some camps that are held in the Mundet area, which are suitable for children up to the age of 18 and where they attend 4 English classes a day of 45 minutes each. This is combined with sports activities, swimming and different excursions to Parc Güell, Tibidabo, Sitges or Tarragona among many other iconic spots of Barcelona. In this case, we are talking about is a full-time day camps, held from 9:00 am to 8.00 pm.

These camps always include materials, meals, classes, and a large variety of activities so that you don't have to worry about anything, just that your children learn and enjoy themselves. English multi-adventure camps: If you are looking for a unique experience for your little one, and a summer that will be difficult to forget, they will love an overnight camp. These are all the offers of English camps in Barcelona.

The most important thing in this camp is to improve their level of English (and even learn some Spanish) while having fun, but they will also acquire positive habits: healthy eating, daily exercise, self-sufficiency, teamwork... And all within reinforcing values such as companionship, solidarity and tolerance.

Each day they will have several hours of English classes, normally between 2 and 4 hours, and the rest of the day they will carry out multi-adventure and aquatic activities such as paddle surfing, surfing, kayaking, catamaran sailing, canyoning, hiking, archery, gymkhanas, paintball, rafting, caving, zip-lining, mountain biking and caving. The days will be concluded with workshops and evening parties. Follow this link if you are specifically looking for a multi-adventure camp in Barcelona.

These camps are held in Barcelona, Arenys de Mar, Castellar de N'hug or Moia and in nearby provinces such as Lleida, Castellón or Girona.

- Multi-adventure camps with total English immersion: In these camps there are no theoretical classes or English lessons as usual, the idea is to be in contact with this language 24 hours a day, both in sports and multi-adventure activities, workshops, and in everyday situations. The children will not have the sensation of being studying English at all, but they will internalise the language, new vocabulary, and above all, they will learn to speak English more fluently. In Arenys de Mar, Castellar de N'hug, Juneda and the Pyrenees you will find these types of camps.

- Camps with English-speaking families: In addition to the camps mentioned above, in Moia, you have the option of sending your child to an English-speaking family for yet another experience of total immersion in English. The children will be accompanied at all times by native teachers and monitors, they will have 2 hours of English in the morning and 2 hours in the afternoon, to reinforce and increase their theoretical knowledge of English. They will be practising throughout the day with the different activities and of course in everyday situations with the family. They will also go on different excursions for the duration of the camp.

Best of all, they will have a great time in any of these, improve their English or Spanish and make new foreign friends with whom they will be able to practice the language they have been learning from now on. Sometimes, you can also find English camps abroad, in cities such as London or Edinburgh, that are also organised an departrom Barcelona.

As you can see, there are many options for your children to spend a different and fun summer and learn English.
