Enjoy the highlights video from our second October surf yoga adventure retreat in El Salvador. There were some super long rides where Amigas were learning to do cutbacks on longboards and a lot of dancing. Come surf with us in El Salvador in October/November 2015. Send an email to [email protected] to be added to the interested list and alerted when dates are posted!

The El Salvador retreats are geared for advanced beginners and intermediate surfers. This week we had a good mix of shortboarders and longboarders. While the shortboard shredders chose to walk down the beach to a different break, the longboarders cruised right out front for some really nice rides.
Join us in October in El Salvador to get in on this!

What’s the deal with surf leggings, you ask? Well, quite a lot! We first noticed Amigas wearing their yoga pants in the surf to protect them from things like jellyfish, rashes from wax, and the sun. They looked cute but we’d never tried them. Recently when designing our new custom rashguard (see photo of Sam modeling the Surf With Amigas rashguard below) we decided to add some leggings to the line (see Jackie in the leggings). We tried them ourselves and became addicted! They’re functional, cute, and they just feel good to wear. Perfect for surf, yoga, dancing, or whatever you feel like doing. Surf With Amigas surf leggings are only available in the SWA Suitcase Boutique by coming on a retreat with us.

Once a year we pack up all the boards and drive South to Magnific Rock for our annual Southern Nicaragua Retreat. This year we had a very diverse group of Amigas from a few different countries including Peru and Australia. We had pretty small surf which allowed us to surf three different spots. Everyone improved so much!

We only do it once a year, but it’s a pretty special experience. We’ll stay at a gorgeous location situated on a rocky outcrop with ocean visible almost 270 degrees. The food is amazing (like seriously amazing), the waves are super duper cute (several surf spots to choose from – all within walking distance), there’s WiFi, AirCon, and real flush toilets right in your room!
The retreat is limited to just 12 spots and as of May 15th, we’re over half full with several on the list promising to send in their deposits within the next week. If you’re interested, get on it! Check out all the info here and email [email protected] with questions and to sign up!
Check out the video from last year if you need further convincing! It’s going to be awesome!
There are a lot of retreats all over the world specializing in surf and yoga for women. Why choose Surf With Amigas? We have awesome staff, amazing coaching, including video coaching, great locations, and we’re passionate about making your week with us the very best week of your life. Watch this video to hear what new Amigas and ladies on their 2nd, 3rd, and even 4th retreats have to say about why they keep coming back.
Surf With Amigas is primarily about surfing. We surf when the conditions are best and schedule all other activities around that. However, there’s a lot more to it than what happens out in the water. There’s daily yoga, and all day laughter. Plenty of adventures, horseback riding, jungle hiking, monkey sound making, and good food eating. It’s hilarious, interesting, fun, and addicting!

We’ve been seriously loving Costa Rica. The place we’re staying has two super fun surf spots right out front. One is good when the swell is a bit bigger and another is fun when the swell is smaller. Yesterday we had some small clean waves so we walked just a bit down the beach and scored this fun peak with no one else out! Check out a few snaps from the session.
This is the highlight video from our first ever retreat in Costa Rica. As you can see, it was incredibly awesome. We hiked, we danced, we rode horses, we explored the jungle, we did yoga, and of course we surfed! We are super stoked and have decided to make the Costa Rican retreats an annual event. Stay tuned for details on future retreats.[youtube=http://youtu.be/sGUEoiA5Mhk]
