♥ Who are surf retreats good for? ♥

Surf retreats offer an effortless, all-inclusive way to enjoy a surf holiday especially if you’re new to the sport. Our retreat is designed for women who are ready to learn in a supportive and empowering environment. You don’t need any prior experience, just basic swimming skills and a love for the ocean. It’s a great way to overcome any hesitation about surfing, with professional coaching and a fun, encouraging vibe. Many guests leave with not only new skills but also meaningful connections forming lasting friendships and surf sisterhoods that extend well beyond the retreat.

♥ What is a surf retreat? ♥

A surf retreat offers a more elevated experience than a typical surf camp, combining stylish accommodations like private villas with relaxing extras such as spa treatments and gourmet dining. While traditional surf camps are often more basic covering essentials like lodging, meals, and surf lessons a surf retreat goes beyond. You’ll often find yoga sessions and wellness activities included, creating a more holistic getaway that nurtures your body, mind, and spirit alongside daily surf adventures.

♥ What are the benefits of a surf retreat? ♥

Joining a surf retreat is a great way to accelerate your progress in the water. With experienced and certified instructors guiding you, you’ll feel supported and safe as you learn on waves and boards suited to your skill level whether you’re a total beginner or looking to refine more advanced techniques.

These immersive experiences are typically hosted in some of the world’s top surfing destinations, like Bali, where warm water (around 28°C / 84°F) and consistent waves create ideal conditions nearly year-round.

One of the biggest perks of a surf-focused getaway is the ease everything is organized for you. From transport to different surf spots and daily activities to all your meals and

gear, it’s all taken care of. All you need to do is turn up, paddle out, and enjoy the ride.

♥ How to pick a good surf retreat? ♥ Although it’s natural to have high hopes when booking a surf retreat, doing a bit of research beforehand can really pay off. One of the key things to check is the surf season at your chosen destination, as not every location offers consistent waves year-round.

Bali is a unique exception thanks to its geography, the swell shifts between the west and east coasts depending on the season, allowing for reliable surf conditions throughout the year.

In contrast, places with only one coastline may experience long flat spells at certain times. So, if you’re planning a retreat during a less active season, you might find the ocean surprisingly still. Fortunately, Bali’s dual-coast setup means you’ll have a good chance of catching waves no matter when you go.

♥ The Surf Breaks ♥

While many destinations claim to cater to all surfing levels, that’s rarely the case. Each beach or reef break tends to suit specific skill levels some are perfect for beginners, while others challenge more advanced surfers. A well-organized women’s surf retreat will take you to a variety of surf spots not just the break in front of the accommodation. If only one location is offered, it’s worth doing your own research to ensure it matches your experience level.

At a professionally run retreat, your surf sessions will be guided by accredited instructors with deep local knowledge of wave conditions and break safety.

The team and fellow guests can offer helpful insight into which spots are ideal for your skill level. Ideally, you’ll be placed in a group with other surfers at a similar stage so that each session is both safe and supportive.

Water Temperature

Another key weather factor to keep in mind is that many surf destinations don’t offer warm water year-round. Surfing in warm water lets you stay out longer and enjoy the waves without the discomfort of thick wetsuits or the need for ear protection, which is often necessary in colder conditions to prevent issues like surfer’s ear.
