Testimonials
“The most nourishing, soul nurturing, ecstatic getaway. Thank you, Chris and Dalia, for hosting such a special retreat. SO much goodness and aliveness”
“Chris is a patient, caring and attentive surf coach. If you have never surfed before or are a little anxious about the waves, he will create the safest environment for you to thrive in the water. The camp itself is a fantastic opportunity to meet like minded people, experience joy and connect with the ocean. The nourishment before and after the surf cooked by an Ayurvedic practicioner was a delightful addition!”
“Its hard to capture the experience, but Chris and Dalia provided a wonderful surf retreat experience. Beautiful property where we stayed, lovely people, great food and lovely shared times around the fire. Learning to surf allowed me to enjoy the beautiful beaches and surf in a way I hadn’t before.. I am hooked. Thanks so much for your generosity in facilitating a wonderful retreat perfect for everyone to enjoy”
“This was so much more than just a surf retreat! The nourishing food, the tea ceremonies, the gorgeous location, music by the fire, the beautiful connections made, and of course the surf lessons with Chris. Chris really inspired me connect with the ocean and waves differently than before; this trip also helped me build up my confidence in the ocean more too. Highly recommend going on one of these trips with Chris and Dalia, they really made it something so special and a surf trip to remember forever!”
