Here’s How to Spend Spring Break Learning French in St Barth

By: - February 9th, 2016

Sure, you can head to the beach for Spring Break, but why not add a new skill while you’re at it?

Like French lessons, for example.

The Cheval Blanc St Barth Isle de France hotel has launched a new program that will offer immersive French lessons.

The lessons will be for anyone — kids or adults — and they’ll be a hybrid of French and another skill.

That means French cooking classes where the whole class is taught in French, or French windsurfing lessons in French, or tennis — get the idea?

And yes, there’s even a total French immersion option, where, upon request, the whole staff will speak to you only in French.

Pourquoi pas?
