Vejer de la Frontera is a small, perfectly conserved, historic town surrounded by beautiful countryside. It has been granted the status of Area of Historic and Artistic Interest and has also won the Most Beautiful Towns of Spain award. But Vejer is not just history. The steep, zigzagging streets, the whitewashed houses and the balconies filled with flowers also hide internet cafes, hotels, guest houses, shops, restaurants, galleries and side-walk cafes. Fifteen minutes away on the Atlantic coast are some spectacular beaches. El Palmar has remained undeveloped and is normally free from crowds. Los Caños de Meca has more visitors and is very popular with young people. There are bars and restaurants, discos and shops and the cove is ideal for windsurfing.

The school building dates from the middle of the nineteenth century and is constructed on top of the ancient Moorish town walls. Large sections of these walls, which were built in the eleventh century, have been conserved, including the watchtower, which overlooks our garden. The school has two Andalusian interior patios, a garden with orange trees, jasmine and bougainvillaea, a terrace facing south across rolling countryside and an enormous azotea or roof, with views in all directions, from Medina Sidonia in the north to Morocco in the south. All these areas are available for the use of students. All the courses and programmes organised at La Janda IH Vejer are supplemented by extra-curricular activities: films, talks, visit to places of local interest, kite-surfing, cookery classes and sports. Each weekend there is an excursion of one or two days to places further afield – to Seville, Cordoba, Morocco, Cadiz, Ronda

'Vejer is even more beautiful than I imagined. Especially at night, the illumination of the town is fantastic. ..In the daytime, you can see the beach, the river, the mountains and the countryside. All the houses are painted white and the sky is free of clouds.' Toshimitsu Kuniaki.
