About Insted

Insted was established in 1997 with the concept to provide high-quality language courses in locations that offer active and exciting opportunities. Our headquarters are based in Chamonix Mont Blanc, France, where we opened our first school more that ten years ago. Since then we have expanded the concept to include Spanish courses ans surfing on the volcanic island of Tenerife, just off the cost from Africa, and in the beautiful seaside town of San Sebastián located in the Basque region of northern Spain. The overwhelming success of our courses have enabled us to expand our offerings to include French courses and surfing in beautiful Biarritz on the French Atlantic coast near the Spanish border and San Sebastián.

The Insted headquarters are based in Chamonix-Mont Blanc, France since 1999, where the first Insted school was opened more than ten years ago to teach French to people from all over the world. Since then, Insted has expanded to include Surf & Study in surf-locations such as Biarritz, San Sebastian and Puerto de la Cruz, Tenerife.
