Pichilemu Language School, Pichilemu, Chile
General Information on Pichilemu Language School
The language school Pichilemu Language School was founded in Pichilemu, Chile in 2005. Pichilemu is country town meets surf town; ride your horse to the supermarket while you talk on your cell. It's slow-paced, dusty, rustic, but quaint and beautiful with a small but loyal following of surfers and windsurfers from Chile and afar. The weather is agreeable all year, the accommodation prices are cheap outside high season (dec-march), and the beaches and surf are truly representative of the wild Pacific. The school is in the small town center, 1 block from the beach, near restaurants, pubs, supermarket, and stores. 3rd floor location with 280 degree views of ocean and town. 10-20 min walking from most accommodation options. The school is located in Anibal Pinto 21 Oficina #3, 6 Pichilemu (Chile).
Facilities
New building with modern and light classrooms. Large terrace with amazing ocean views. Wi-Fi, reception area, kitchenette, book exchange library.
