Sotogrande International Summer Camp — Cádiz, Spain

Campers choose a two-week programme built from a morning sport focus and an afternoon academic or language block. Junior Camp is for ages 8 to 12 and Master Camp for ages 13 to 16; both allow campers to combine a chosen sport with their preferred academic option. Three specialist pathways run alongside them: Music Camp for ages 10 to 16, Elite Tennis and Elite Golf, both aimed at ages 12 and over. Language options are offered in English, Spanish and French, and the academic side also covers STEAM and public speaking.

The camp is sold as two-week sessions, offered either as a residential place (Sunday to Saturday) or as a day place (Monday to Friday, from the morning through to early evening). The residential fee covers the programme, accommodation, meals, scheduled activities, entertainment and excursions, supervision by monitors and teachers, laundry, use of the facilities, accident and civil liability insurance, an end-of-camp report and certificate, and airport or train station transfers from Málaga on arrival and departure days within the published transfer window. Elite Tennis and Elite Golf are residential pathways only.

Residential campers stay in the Sotogrande International Boarding House on campus, refurbished in recent years, with boys' and girls' wings. Campers normally share a room with one other camper, though some rooms take three or four depending on the room and on preferences. Rooms are en-suite, with individually controlled heating and air conditioning, Wi-Fi, fitted wardrobes, desks and storage, and bedrooms open onto shared balconies looking over the golf courses and the Mediterranean. Social rooms, a games area and kitchenettes are available to campers, and the campus is supervised around the clock with controlled access.

Meals are included for both residential and day campers. Residential campers are on full board with meals prepared on campus; the day programme includes meals across the camp day. Dietary requirements should be discussed with the camp team when booking.

Mornings are given to the chosen sport: water sports on the nearby coast, horse riding, tennis, golf, football or a multisport rotation. Afternoons move to language and academic options, with STEAM and public speaking on the academic side. Weekly excursions take campers out of the campus, and the residential programme adds structured evening entertainment, pizza nights and outdoor events. An optional football pathway run with Juventus is available as a half-day add-on and is charged separately.

The camp uses the Sotogrande International School campus: sports pitches and courts, academic classrooms, dining facilities and the on-campus boarding house, with social rooms, a games area and kitchenettes for residential campers. The setting sits between the Mediterranean coast and the golf courses of the Sotogrande area, which is what makes the elite golf and water sports pathways possible.

The camp suits families looking for a premium, sport-led summer in southern Spain with a genuine international mix. Because campers pick both a morning sport and an afternoon academic or language block, two children in the same session can have very different weeks. Monitor ratios are published at one to ten for the main camps, and language classes are capped at twelve. Families comparing options should note that the elite tennis and golf pathways are residential only, while the general camps can be taken as day places.
