Super Ort zum lernen und an den Weekends Ausflüge zu machen. Great Berrier Reef, Regenwald, Table Lands... Einfach toll. Die Leute sind sehr freundlch und hilfsbereit. Einfach toll! Kleine Gruppen, wir waren 3-4 TN pro Klasse. Das Kursprogramm wird auf jeden TN individuell zusammengestellt. Die Lehrpersonen sind sehr kompetent. Der Unterricht ist sehr kreativ und abwechsulungsreich. David ( der Lehrer)hat uns bei der Freizeitgestaltung unterstützt und uns wertvolle Tipps gegeben. Die Gastfamilie wohnt direkt am 4mile Beach. Schönes Haus mit swimming pool. Heidi war super nett. Ich kann die PDLC sehr empfehlen. Und würde auf jeden Fall auch wieder dort hin gehen.

Metodo di insegnamento, flessibilità ed accompagnamento degli studenti lungo tutta l'esperienza a Port Douglas sono i punti di forza di questa scuola. Dovessi scegliere dove andare la prossima volta non avrei dubbi. Abitazione migliore di un albergo a 5 stelle, meglio di casa mia! Famiglia molto disponibile e cordiale.eccellente.

Host family
The host families in Port Douglas live close to the school. Students can get to and from the school easily on foot, by bicycle or by bus. Most families have a swimming pool or live close to the beach. Students stay in single rooms with half-board provided. Families are chosen with care by our partner school and suit adults and professionals looking for comfort and convenience. Staying with a host family is also an excellent opportunity to put into practice the new language skills you will acquire!

Port Douglas is full of possibilities for adventure and discovery, as it's close to two UNESCO World Heritage sites: the Great Barrier Reef and the Daintree Rainforest. Dive (with or without tanks) on the Outer Barrier Reef, play golf by the seaside, relax on the famous 4 mile Beach or go rafting on the Tully River, swim in the crystal waters of Mossman Gorge, go on excursions in one of the most ancient tropical forests in the world (110 million years). Kangaroos, koalas, crocodiles, rare birds and multicoloured flowers… Enjoy Port Douglas' warm and festive atmosphere and don’t forget your camera!
