WHAT IS INCLUDED IN A SALTY SISTERS RETREAT?
Our Salty Sisters retreat packages typically include accommodation, surf lessons and equipment, meals, and transport to and from the surf spots. Some retreats also include extras like yoga sessions or local excursions.
WHAT LEVEL OF SURF EXPERIENCE DO I NEED?
Our retreats welcome every level, from complete beginners to advanced surfers. We offer lessons for beginners and intermediates, guided sessions for advanced surfers, and coaching for anyone working toward competition-level surfing.
DO YOU PROVIDE SURF EQUIPMENT?
Yes, surf equipment is included as part of your retreat. If you prefer to bring your own board or wetsuit, you're more than welcome to.
WHAT IS A TYPICAL DAY ON A SALTY SISTERS RETREAT?
A typical day includes breakfast together, morning surf lessons or guided sessions, lunch, free time to relax or join an extra activity, an evening surf session or yoga class, and dinner with the group.
IS AIRPORT PICK-UP AND DROP-OFF INCLUDED?
Airport transfers aren't always included and can vary by retreat. If you're not sure whether yours includes transport, just get in touch and we'll confirm.
WHAT IS THE ACCOMMODATION LIKE?
Accommodation varies by destination, from shared rooms to private rooms, right through to beachfront bungalows, depending on the retreat you choose.
CAN I COME ALONE, OR BRING FRIENDS WHO DON'T SURF?
Many of our Salty Sisters come solo and leave with a whole new group of friends, it's part of what makes the community so special. Non-surfing friends are also welcome to join, with plenty to enjoy beyond the waves, like yoga, local excursions, or simply relaxing on the beach.
Yes, you can usually extend your stay at the retreat, subject to availability.
Meals are usually included, though some retreats have a meal-free day or two to support local businesses in the area. Check the specific retreat page or contact us for the exact meal plan.
IS TRAVEL INSURANCE REQUIRED?
Travel insurance isn't required to book, but we always recommend it, along with checking you have the right visa for your destination, so you're properly covered for your trip.
CAN I LEAVE THE RETREAT WITH A QUALIFICATION?
Yes. Our Women's Surf Instructor Courses often run alongside the Salty Sisters retreats, so on select dates you can train and travel with the same group at the same time. It's a completely optional add-on, so if you'd like to come home with an ISA qualification as well as a tan, just let us know when you book.
