Bali Surf Retreats for Women

What happens on a surf retreat?

A well-planned surf retreat will take you to the best surf breaks for your level at the best time to catch the best waves. Usually this is in the morning as the wind tends to pick up as the day goes one, so surfers head out in the morning to catch ‘glassy’ surf. The best time to surf also depends on the tides. Different surf breaks will work best on different tides, and the tides change daily with the phase of the moon. It can be quite a science to find the right tide and break combination, so surf session times will always be flexible. After surfing your retreat will offer a balance of personal time for relaxation, spa pampering alongside sightseeing adventure and spiritual activities like yoga and meditation.

20 Years Of Teaching Women Surfing

Established in 2003, Surf Goddess was the first ‘surf retreat’ for women who want to go on a ‘surf camp’, but with all the inclusions found on a luxury vacation. The Surf Goddess coaching program was inspired by our founder, who was taught surfing by a woman, and realized that women learn surfing differently than men and that we needed our own approach for introducing women to surfing…at any age or fitness level.

From there we developed a surf retreat program that that holistically address women’s unique physical strengths and challenges, our relationship to the ocean and our goals and intentions of why we want to surf.

Our mission is still the same today, which has always been not just teach women how to surf on their holiday, but to help create a generation of women wave riders who will share the soul of surfing around the world.

We have introduced thousands of women to surfing. If you are a beginner and have never surfed before, you are going to surprise yourself by standing up on the board by the end of your first lesson!   We also respect that every woman is on her own journey and our women’s surfing program allows you to progress comfortably at your own pace throughout the week.
