  • Our retreat welcomes participants of all skill levels - from complete beginners to advanced athletes. For surfing, we offer lessons tailored to your experience, with separate groups for those who’ve never stood on a board and those looking to refine their technique. Swimming sessions are also divided by ability, and our functional training can be scaled to match your fitness level.

  • Our retreats welcome participants of all fitness levels! Before the retreat, we’ll ask you to complete a questionnaire about your experience and comfort level with swimming, surfing, and general fitness. All activities offer modifications for beginners through advanced practitioners. While basic swimming ability is recommended for surf retreats, we can accommodate complete beginners with additional support. The focus is on personal growth rather than competition.

  • We provide all essential equipment including surfboards, and training equipment. You should bring:

    • 2-3 swimsuits/board shorts

    • Reef-safe sunscreen (SPF 50+ recommended)

    • UV-protective shirts/rash guards

    • Athletic clothing for functional training sessions

    • Refillable water bottle

    • Towels for beach

    • Flip-flops and athletic shoes (optional)

    Equipment rental is included in your retreat package, but if you prefer to use your own surfboard or specific training gear, you’re welcome to bring it.

  • The retreat is designed to be challenging but adaptable to your fitness level. A moderate level of physical fitness will help you enjoy the activities fully, but all sessions can be modified to match your capabilities. You’re free to opt out of any activity if you’re feeling fatigued or prefer to rest. We encourage participants to listen to their bodies and maintain a sustainable pace throughout the retreat. Rest days or lighter activity days can be arranged with your instructor.

  • The best time to visit Siargao for our retreat depends on your priorities:

    • March to October: Ideal for surfing with consistent swells (peak surfing season: September-October)

    • November to February: Calmer waters, better for swimming and beginners learning to surf

    • April to June: Typically offers the best weather conditions with less rainfall

    • July to November: Can experience occasional rainstorms but offers excellent surf conditions

    Our retreats run year-round, but we adjust the program emphasis based on seasonal conditions to ensure you get the most out of your experience.
