Fort Lauderdale

In the South-East of the Sunshine State of Florida, Fort Lauderdale has 24 miles of beautiful sandy beaches along the Atlantic coast, a paradise for holiday makers. Named the "Venice of the North" due to its numerous canals and waterways, Fort Lauderdale, Florida has a lot to offer: sunbathing, tennis, diving, sailing, windsurfing, etc. Five of the seven beaches have been awarded the European Blue Flag.
Enjoy the beach by water taxi, a yellow water bus or in a horse-drawn carriage. The Museum of Arts is well worth a visit, as it houses one of the best collections of art in the USA, including works by Dali and Picasso. Restaurants can be found on the Boulevard in the heart of the town, where you can watch some of the 40,000 yachts moored in Fort Lauderdale pass by.
Disney World nearby is definitely not to be missed, and shop till you drop at the Sawgrass Mill, which, over1.8 miles, offers 300 boutiques, cafes and restaurants.
We recommend you hire a car before your departure from home as hire cars in Florida can be very expensive.


The school

Our school is situated in the town centre, on the Boulevard, Las Olas. The beach is within easy reach, about 10 minutes away by public transport. There are cafes and restaurants, jazz clubs, museums and exhibitions, parks and waterways near the school. Our modern language school has 16 air-conditioned classrooms and a cafeteria. All tutors use fun, modern methods to teach English to the international groups.

Sightseeing in Fort Lauderdale

Known as the American Venice, Fort Lauderdale has almost 500 km of waterways. These, combined with its beautiful beaches, have made Fort Lauderdale a perfect holiday location and the safety and cleanliness of its beaches deserves to be mentioned too. The beach promenade is home to cafes, bars and entertainment. Colourful corals, exotic fish and breathtaking reefs make this place ideal for diving.
Culture lovers will find the Broward Center with its two theatres, the Florida Grand Opera, the Museum of Art and the Museum of Discovery and Science especially interesting.

You will find everything in Fort Lauderdale, from diamonds and antiques to reduced designer clothing. The Las Olas Boulevard is home to galleries and excellent restaurants, as well as street cafes. In the evening, we recommend a visit to some of the bars and clubs in the city centre, or simply a walk along the beach promenade.
Our school organises weekend trips to Orlando, as well as excursions to the NASA Cape Canaveral Centre or Key West.
