A day on the retreat

🥞 Breakfast at the surf house - we will have nourishing daily breakfasts all together at our retreat accommodation to fuel us for the day ahead. 

🏄‍♀️ Surf Coaching - we will be heading to the beach for our surf lessons! Whether you’re a beginner or advanced surfer, our experienced surf coaches will ensure you get the attention needed to progress.

🗺️ Time to explore and time to unwind - After our surf lessons, you will have a chance to take a well needed nap, chill on the beach, and grab some lunch at a local cafe. 

😌 Wellbeing workshops - SheSurfs co-founder Matilda is also a qualified therapist and will be running a series of therapeutic workshops during the retreat. These workshops will allow you the chance to connect with yourself on a deeper level, as well as with the other women on the trip.

🌞 Social surfs - for those of you that are at a more intermediate/advanced surfing level and confident heading out on your own, you may want to opt for a sunrise surf while the line up is still pretty empty.

🍹 Sunset sangria - For those who are all about surfing all day everyday now is the chance for you to go for another dip, otherwise join us for sunset sangria (zero-alcohol options too!) with dreamy views of the ocean, right on our doorstep.

🍛 Dinner at the retreat - After a long day we will gather back at the surf house for a delicious group dinner cooked by a local private chef. The evening is then yours to do whatever you wish, whether that’s chatting the night away with your new friends, or getting an early night ahead of a sunrise surf the next day.

Surfing

Having a whole week in the water is so useful when you’re looking to progress on your board - and having time to relax and take it all in with a great group of gals is even better! Whether you're chasing your first wave or perfecting your cutbacks, our surf coaches in Lanzarote are here to build your confidence and get you progressing on your board. You can expect a mix of structured lessons and chilled social surfs, with an amazing 6:1 surf coach ratio for focussed and detailed instruction.

Workshops

Our series of wellbeing workshops will allow you the chance to connect with yourself on a deeper level, as well as with the other women on the trip. Run by qualified therapist and SheSurfs co-founder Matilda, you can expect workshops that cover key areas including facing fear in and out of the water, and building self confidence. You'll leave feeling recharged, and confident.

+ more

Alongside all of the surfing, we want you to enjoy everything else in and around Famara, including beachside coffees, incredible local food spots, gentle yoga, the breathtaking volcanic lanscape, and some 10/10 dinners by our local private chef to name a few! We're so excited for you to find friendships and a sense of connection that last long after you’ve left the beach.
