Description of Photography holiday in Andalucia, Spain

Andalucia, Spain is the ideal location for a photography holiday, and this week long trip is both a relaxing break and a chance to improve your photography skills. Designed to be fun and inspiring, this photo holiday suits both beginners and those with more experience. Set your talent free and enjoy taking photos in a range of lovely locations. Then relax each evening in comfy and spacious accommodation in the village of Torrox, and tuck into the excellent, healthy local food and wine. This holiday is also very reasonably priced.

You will be under the guidance of an experienced, approachable tutor, who is incredibly knowledgeable about photography and about Andalucia, too. Photographers with all levels of experience are welcome and will benefit from this tuition, learning how to get more from their DSLR or bridge cameras. Everything from composition to exposure and lighting will be talked through and practiced when out on location, so that you head home with a wealth of photography experience and lots more confidence in your skills. This is also a chance to make new friends in a relaxed and inclusive environment and enjoy a wonderful break, too.

Andalucia, in southern Spain, is exceptionally pretty, with a huge range of scenery, impressive mountains, a good climate, history, culture and a great diversity of flora and fauna. This becomes your beautiful canvas, as you photograph your way around the region.

I came away with photographs and memories of people and locations in Andalucía which give me a sense of local people in their own locations rather than just being a tourist on holiday. Read full review

Torrox is a lovely village which really gives you the sense of being in 'real' Spain. Being taken to various locations, offered photography tuition and advice in a relaxed atmosphere is a fantastic way to spend a week - a great balance of focussing on a hobby while also being looked after on holiday.

Sustainable Tourism Policy
We recognise that the environment, the community and the culture within which we operate and our relationship with local organisations, businesses and individuals is vital to the success of our business. We therefore commit in the long term to:
Minimising the direct environmental impact of our operations and being proactively involved in activities that work to protect the natural environment.
Working with our guests to understand and respect the needs of local people and our suppliers.
Support our local economy by bringing business to our village particularly during the winter months.
Our photo holidays are taken in small groups (maximum 8 people) to minimise the impact on the environment.
Use locally owned traditional accommodation.
Use wherever possible organic fruit and vegetables or locally grown produce in season.
Inform our guests of the history and culture of our region.
Always behave in an environmentally responsible manner.
One of the main attractions of our holidays is the opportunity to stay in a traditional Spanish village where the local people are very welcoming. This is because we work very closely with our local community and we bring considerable business to the local shops, restaurants and home owners especially during the quieter winter months when there are fewer tourists visiting.
We also encourage our clients to visit local shops and restaurants on their free day. We recycle all our food waste as much as we can.
