While there is plenty of time to start thinking about an English camp for children, it is always good to go looking at options for this summer, among other things, because stocks have much further in advance, you know from experience that will have more choice, and that, in these times is very, very well.

The enterprise of today we talk to is called Surf Art Camp, and, as its name suggests, is a surf camp and school in one of the most traditional areas of the peninsula surfing, the beach of Razo, Carballo, very, very close to A Coruna, an area which, personally, I love, both for summer and winter.

This company, as I say, is dedicated to giving surf lessons, but be careful, not only for children, but to all ages, and besides, you have to choose at all levels, from beginners to advanced novice.

But Art Surf Camp is much more, because, in addition to surfing lessons are alternative activities that will give a different point of your stay in the camp, and surely will be an experience worth mentioning. The activities include, among others, Yoga, Skate (you know, very closely related to accounts with the surf), Kitesurt, Football, Multi, and the jewel of the crown, the English, because of course, if you can send to children to surf, great, but if you do well and get to learn a little English, but will stay around.

Furthermore, these activities that children get disconnected at all, can be passed on really well and are entertained all day with no chance of boredom, which is a highly recommended option for both children and adults.

Ancient tradition if any, the spike and pot is meeting every week. All the people gather in the historic centre of Bilbao from 10 in the morning to move from bar to bar in search of delicious snacks and refreshing pots. In each place you stop ask for a snack and a beer. For the 2 PM are ready for a nap.

The most pleasant of the spike and pot, plus the delicious taste, is that it is a ritual that does not distinguish age or social position. Everyone approaches the historic premises in pursuit of their favourites. Entire families, an elderly couple, a group of young people with their dogs, which came on Saturday and were not able to go to sleep. The rockers, conservatives and tourists all come together to celebrate the day off.
