Restore & recharge
Sunrise yoga on the sand, long surf sessions and slow afternoons. Four nights of salty hair, stretched-out muscles and a very happy nervous system — the reset you didn’t know you needed.
What is a surf camp?
A surf camp is more than a place to sleep and a few hours of surfing. It’s a few days to disconnect from your normal routine, spend more time outside, meet people, learn something new and experience life by the ocean.
Who this is for
Surf n Yoga is for the first-timer who wants a gentler way in, and the improving surfer who’d like to surf hard and recover harder. It’s for the solo traveller or small group keen to meet new friends over a shared flow — people who are as happy on a yoga mat as they are in the lineup. If you’re after a reset that blends salty adventure with slow mornings, relaxing yoga and a genuinely rested nervous system, this is your few days away.

What’s in the Surf n Yoga
Settle into a garden-view holiday unit for four nights — quiet, leafy and a short walk to both the beach and the yoga deck. Self-contained with a comfy bed for post-surf naps, a kitchenette for slow mornings, and a private outdoor space to stretch, breathe and watch the tui in the trees.
Three surf lessons with our qualified coaches, plus unlimited board and wetsuit hire for the full stay so you can surf as much (or as little) as you like. Mornings on the water, afternoons to rest — the rhythm is yours to tune. Coaches adapt every session to your level, whether it’s your first wave or your fiftieth.
Beyond the mat and the lineup, we’ll guide you to the Coromandel’s gentler treasures — a bush walk to a hidden waterfall, a soak at a local hot-water beach on the right tide, or a lazy afternoon at a café with the paper. The pace here is deliberately slow.
Yoga and surfing both attract open, curious people, and our small-group format makes it easy to connect. Share breakfast hampers on the deck, flow through a sunset class together, and leave with a few new friends as well as a few new skills.

Good for: Anyone wanting to blend surfing with rest, movement and a slower pace.
A typical day
No two days at the beach are ever the same, but here’s the rhythm your Surf n Yoga stay tends to find — a loose shape you can lean into or bend to suit the swell and the weather.
6:45 am
A gentle beachfront yoga session as the sun comes up over the ocean. Breathe, stretch, and wake up the body you’re about to surf with.
8:30 am
Back to your garden-view unit for the arrival breakfast hamper — fruit, coffee, pastries — eaten slowly on the deck with the tui in the trees.
10:00 am
A coached surf lesson adapted to your level, whether it’s your first wave or your fiftieth. Unlimited board hire means you can keep paddling out after.
1:00 pm
A bush walk to a hidden waterfall, a soak at a local hot-water beach on the right tide, or just a nap and a book. The pace is deliberately unhurried.
5:30 pm
A restorative sunset yoga class to lengthen surfed-out muscles, then dinner with the group — new friends, easy conversation, early night.
