About this trip
Our surf retreat is a transformative experience that combines the exhilaration of surfing with the serenity of yoga practice, 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 Ericeira 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 contemporary coastal cuisine. Our surf retreat will leave you revitalized, inspired, and deeply connected to the sea.
The Accomodations
Renowned as one of the best hotels in Ericeira, our venue is a secluded property surrounded by nature, gazes over the Atlantic from a cliff. Our venue drew inspiration from the tones and textures of the surrounding beaches, dunes and cliffs; and sought to maximize views of the ocean with large windows and natural light. Enjoy spectacular views of the Atlantic from a private terrace or step outside into a private garden. The rooms blend nature and modernist architecture that both feel comfortable and inspiring. Designed with clean lines, the calming interior features a king-size bed, a living area, and a bathroom with a walk-in rainfall shower and a separate toilet.
The Surf
Ericeira is famous for some of the best waves in the world. Surfers have long cherished this coastline with its dramatic cliffs, golden sand beaches and peaceful little bays. The region has even been designated Europe’s only “surf reserve” and there's something for every level surfer.
The Yoga
Reconnect with your inner self through the power of restorative yoga and mediation. You will be guided through daily yoga sessions that cater to all levels of experience, promoting flexibility and inner peace.
The Food
Food is always a highlight at our retreats. Our onsite restaurant offers vibrant and delicious dishes that are shareable, sustainable, and seasonable. They pay homage to the land and the sea, by sourcing produce from local farms and seafood fresh off the fishing boats from Peniche Harbour.
Wellness
Find balance on the stunning meditation deck overlooking the Atlantic ocean. Relax and unwind in the onsite Spa while experiencing mind-body healing properties with the rituals of hammam. Or simply sunbathe by the stone-trimmed saltwater pool. There’s a bit of magic for everyone at this magical venue.

Itinerary
Surfer, yogini and empowerment coach Lulu Agan and her collective SwellWomen have been at the helm of leading women to their purpose, bliss and optimal health for more than 20 years. Coming from a vibrant background as a globe-trotting corporate executive and private chef, Lulu aims to take her worldly experience and share it with women who desire to hand-craft their most blissful lives possible. As a RYS600 Yoga Teacher and IIN Certified Coach, Lulu masterfully accomplishes this by honing in on the energy of surf, yoga, adventure travel, wellness and empowerment coaching to craft unique retreats and online offerings that serve to empower any woman brave enough to seek a guiding hand.
To Lulu, the ocean has the power to erase egos, unleash bare human spirit and teach one to color outside of the lines, while yoga brings balance and a deep, supportive connection to oneself — all lessons that can be easily carried from her surfboard or yoga mat back to daily life, allowing that raw passion to color her every moment.
