Campers who are 15 or turn 15 the year of camp attendence may have permission to leave the camp grounds with friends, as long as they have signed consent from their parents/ guardians.
Camp Location
Located on a beautiful finca, the Alborán camp is surrounded by a thick wood of pine trees. This enclosed setting provides a shaded, protected and tranquil atmosphere for our international campers. It is set at 8 km (13 miles) from the historic center of Marbella and is just a short ride from the famous Hotel Don Carlos. Best of all, the prestigious facilities are just a 15-minute walk from the beach!
Facilities
The camp is centered around a main building which holds dorm rooms, a dining hall and a residential area for counselors and coaches. Throughout the rest of the grounds, youth who like sports and activities will find themselves in summer heaven. There is large swimming pool, a covered, multipurpose sports area, a paddleball court, 2 soccer fields (one grass and one paved), a basketball/ mini-soccer court, a handball court and two stables. There is additionally a newsstand and a game hall.
Lodging
Residential students will sleep on bunk beds in dormitory rooms for 8-12 campers. The rooms are grouped according to age and sex. At least one counselor sleeps in each bedroom to supervise the campers. Counselors also supervise the shower house, which is set apart from the residence hall.
