Surf, Yoga & Beach Wellness Week in Peniche, Portugal

This eight-day retreat in Peniche pairs six surf lessons with seven yoga classes, all run by a small, certified team. Surf sessions happen most mornings from around 9am, though the ocean decides the schedule — sometimes you'll paddle out at midday or later if conditions are better. Groups are kept to a handful of people per coach, and all equipment is included for the whole stay. After lunch — either cooked in the guesthouse kitchen or grabbed at one of the local restaurants — the afternoon is yours. There are beach bars, SUP rentals, a golf course, and coastal hiking trails within easy reach. Around sunset, the yoga mat comes out again for a one-hour hatha or vinyasa class, taught by Chiara, who bases her sequences around alignment and building strength and flexibility for surfing. Evenings tend to be social, with guests gathering for shared meals. The retreat is best known for its atmosphere: solo travellers are common, and the homely rooms, family feel, and genuine staff make it easy to find your people. You can also book extras like sound healing, reiki, osteopathy, and massage in the on-site treatment room at an additional charge.
