Residential Visit – Costa Del Sol

Year 2 BTEC travel and tourism students, Danielle Clews, Natalie Durant, Carissa Lawley and Rachel Griffiths report on their residential visit to Spain in November 2006.

 

“For our residential unit in BTEC travel and tourism we had to plan and visit a chosen destination. We visited Benelmadena in Costa Del Sol. We chose this destination for a number of reasons: There were plenty of attractions to visit; it was a short flying time of 2 and half hours; it was within our budget of £150 and the weather was warm for the time of year.

During the trip we visited the sea life centre, Gibraltar and Torremolinos. The trip was really educational although we also had lots of fun. It helped us to understand how to plan an overseas visit as well as bringing the students and tutors closer together.”
