Have you ever been to a place and stood in awe of its beauty and inspired by its sense of community? Have you felt at peace just being there but with just one nagging realization that you won’t be able to integrate the way you’d like in a short week vacation? We know the feeling well and that’s why we have curated an experience that goes above and beyond what you could possibly find on your own but also provides you a window into the town and our group of power women that no other retreat can offer. 

You’ll be hosted, coached and held at all times by an all-star lineup of local women that inspire through their simple mindful way of living. We will laugh, move, stretch, meditate, share our love for surfing and enjoy the simple pleasure of connecting as human beings of this beautiful earth. The food here is a highlight. From exotic tropical fruits to local fish caught that morning we will enjoy absolute decadence and rejuvenation with every meal. Your body and soul nourished by organic locally sourced food prepared in house with love by more amazing women

There is truly something beautiful in watching people transform and being able to share that space and thrive together. We want AWA to leave you overwhelmed with joy and expand your body, mind and soul while living the relaxed lifestyle of this unique laid-back destination. That’s why we do this. That’s why we want you to do it with us

Salty Sensations is a celebration of everything we love about the lifestyle of surfing- connection to nature, community, the brilliant joys of being immersed in the ocean and the present moment. 

A holistic outdoor experience, these retreats are an opportunity to deeply nourish your mind, body and spirit. - a chance to decompress, make new friends, eat delicious food at the water's edge, stay warm by a fire, expand and refine your surf technique and knowledge, and most of all feel the levity of togetherness.
