Tourist board plugs language courses on Costa del Sol

Turismo Costa del Sol, the tourist board for the region, confirmed its dedication to language tourism by taking part in the II Meet Andalucía 2025 Language Tourism Congress, held from March 30 to April 1 in Cádiz.

The Association of Spanish Schools for Foreigners in Andalusia, (EEA), organised an event which brought together linguistic travel agents from around the world and Andalusian Spanish Schools. This made Andalusia a top destination for Spanish Language Education.

The purpose of this congress was to strengthen business relationships between schools, agencies and foreign students through professional meetings. Following the congress, Turismo Costa del Sol organised an exclusive learning trip on April 2-3, immersing 15 international language agents in Málaga province’s educational and cultural choices.

The participants visited prestigious Spanish schools to learn about their teaching methods and programmes. They also visited important destinations such as Benalmadena and Malaga. The participants were treated to cultural and gastronomic events and had the opportunity to meet with school directors in order discuss immersive language programs. This scheme shows how important language tourism is in Costa del Sol. It’s a huge business in Andalusia where over 100 Spanish schools annually attract more than 100,000 international students, creating significant economic and cultural impacts.

Building on the success of the first Meet Andalucía in Ronda, Turismo Costa del Sol continues to push these events to elevate the region’s global profile.
