Surf Stays Accommodation and Gear Hire

One of the most transformative elements of our retreat experience is the ocean itself. Just moments from your door, the surf break offers an opportunity to experience surfing as a pathway to healing and wellbeing. More than just a sport, surfing encourages mindfulness, resilience, confidence, presence, and a deep connection with the natural environment. Whether you're catching your first wave or are an experienced surfer, the ocean provides a powerful space for reflection, joy, and personal growth.

Surf lessons are available with Rod Rust, one of New Zealand’s pioneering surfers, whose decades of local knowledge and experience offer guests a rare opportunity to learn from a true legend of the Otago surf scene.
