FAQ
What surf level is required ?
Our retreats are designed for intermediate-to-advanced surfers. You must be confident in the water on your own , know how to catch waves on your own (not in the whitewash), and know how to turn/ take directions / avoid other surfers that might get on your way. If you know the basics of surfing, we will adapt the coaching to your level 🙂

Yes. If you don’t want to bring your own longboard, we have high quality longboards for rent here at an extra cost.

There is only one surf session with coaching per day (in the morning) but afternoons are free. Each day we will offer to take you on some optional activities (natural hot springs, turtle release, skatepark…) but you can also just stay at the beach for some free surf.
If lunch and dinner is not included, where can I eat?
