Our surf & yoga retreat is a transformative experience that combines the exhilaration of surfing with the serenity of restorative yoga practices, fostering physical, mental, and spiritual rejuvenation.

Whether you’re a beginner eager to catch your first wave or an intermediary surfer seeking to improve your skills, our surf retreat in Baja Mexico offers a unique blend of personalized coaching and mindful relaxation. 

Join us as we ride the waves, embrace the ocean’s rhythm through mediation, and indulge in the flavors of fresh cuisine. Our surf & yoga retreat will leave you revitalized, inspired, and deeply connected to the sea.

Where the desert meets the sea, our retreat venue is a boutique yoga and wellness sanctuary perched on a hillside overlooking the Pacific Ocean. Just steps from the beach—Cerritos and San Pedrito beaches are a short stroll away—and only minutes from the vibrant “Pueblo Mágico” of Todos Santos, the setting harmonizes coastal beauty with desert serenity. Our venue features beautifully appointed rooms, an intentionally designed, 800‑square‑foot yoga studio with floor‑to‑ceiling glass and 180° ocean views, a salt‑water pool, hot tub, and tranquil lounging areas to take it all in.

Rooms are thoughtfully designed to feel like a home away from home, blending modern comfort with Baja’s natural beauty. Each suite offers breathtaking ocean or pool views, cozy details, and private touches that invite rest and restoration. With crisp linens, locally inspired décor, and tranquil spaces to unwind, the rooms provide a serene sanctuary where guests can rest after full days of surf, yoga, and connection.

Just down the road from Topia, Playa Los Cerritos is one of Baja’s most beloved surf spots—known for its gentle, sandy-bottom break and consistent waves that roll in year-round. It’s the perfect beach for all levels, from absolute beginners catching their very first wave to seasoned surfers looking for long, playful rides. With warm waters and friendly vibes, Cerritos offers the ideal setting to dive into the joy of surfing, no matter your experience.

Reconnect with your inner self through the power of yoga and mediation. You will be guided by the fabulous Margi Young from San Francisco through daily yoga sessions that cater to all levels of experience, promoting restoration, flexibility, and inner peace.

Food is always a highlight at our retreats.  At Topia Retreat, food is celebrated as both nourishment and connection. Guests enjoy vibrant, chef-prepared meals crafted with locally sourced, farm-fresh ingredients that showcase the flavors of Baja’s abundant land and sea. From colorful, plant-forward dishes to sustainably caught seafood and wood-fired creations, every meal is designed to fuel the body, delight the senses, and bring people together around the table. Dining here is more than eating—it’s a soulful experience that complements the retreat’s atmosphere of wellness and community.

Wellness is at the heart of our retreat experience, inviting guests to slow down, restore, and reconnect with themselves. Alongside daily yoga and the healing rhythm of the ocean, your package includes a rejuvenating massage designed to melt away tension and support deep relaxation. From the saltwater pool and hot tub to quiet spaces for reflection, we offer an atmosphere where body, mind, and spirit are nurtured—leaving you renewed, balanced, and fully present.
