Cervantes International Spanish Language School is located in the lovely neighborhood of Pedregalejo, a residential area just 10 minutes east of Malaga's downtown area.
Originally a fishing village, Pedregalejo was later annexed by the city of Malaga, though its past can still be seen in the many fishing boats and seafood restaurants which line the neighborhood's picturesque shoreline.
Pedregalejo's beaches are located just a two minute's walk from the school, offering students boundless opportunities for recreation and relaxation.
The neighborhood's open-air bars and restaurants provide a lively atmosphere and a wide range of excellent fresh seafood at low prices.
