Why just study French in the classroom when you can live it on the French Riviera? ASSE’s 4-week Summer Language Camp in Antibes is the perfect way to improve your French while experiencing life in one of the most beautiful coastal towns in Europe. 

You’ll attend morning French classes taught by native-speaking instructors, with lessons tailored to your skill level. In the afternoons, dive into cultural excursions, beach trips, and group activities like kayaking, windsurfing, or exploring nearby towns. Whether you’re walking along seaside ramparts, shopping at local markets, or enjoying a café with new friends—you’ll be learning every minute, without even realizing it. 

Best of all, you’ll stay with a local host family, giving you the chance to speak French daily, experience local traditions, and truly feel at home. The Antibes Language Camp is more than a study program—it’s a full cultural adventure on the sparkling Côte d’Azur.

Tucked along the stunning Côte d’Azur near Nice, Cannes, and the Italian border, Antibes blends ancient history with a lively Mediterranean vibe. Once a fortified Greek settlement known as Antipolis, this seaside town later became part of the Roman Empire. Today, it’s a favorite summer destination for both locals and international visitors. Wander through the charming vieille ville (old town), where stone ramparts line the coast, colorful bistros fill the narrow streets, and a medieval castle overlooks the port. Don’t miss the bustling Provençal market—it’s a feast for the senses. 

The summer language program in Antibes gives high school students a unique opportunity to live with a local host family and immerse themselves in everyday French life. Mornings are spent in French classes taught by native instructors, with courses tailored to all levels. Host families are located in Antibes or nearby Juan-les-Pins, known for its beachside cafés and relaxed summer atmosphere. 

Afternoons bring a mix of cultural excursions and outdoor adventures. Enjoy weekly guided tours to nearby towns, the Lerins Islands, or Aquasplash—a favorite local water park. Optional activities like kayaking, windsurfing, or simply relaxing on the beach round out your day. And if you’re visiting in July, you’ll be right on time for the famous International Jazz Festival, held just steps from the sea.
