Waluaa Surf and Wellness Retreat

There's a moment in surfing when you drop into a wave and everything else disappears. Waluaa's four-night surf and wellness retreats are built around that feeling, for men and women who want to learn to surf properly, slow down and enjoy a proper holiday. The kind where your shoulders finally drop. It all happens in Lennox Head, one of New South Wales' best little surf towns, just 20 minutes south of Byron Bay.

With just seven guests and a maximum of two surfers per coach, you'll get the attention you need to learn safely and make real progress. Each day, local coaches choose the best beginner-friendly break along the Byron-to-Ballina coastline, so you can make the most of the day's conditions.

Beyond the surf, there's yoga, beachside mindfulness, a restorative massage and free time, on purpose. Think coffee with your feet in the sand, barefoot walks along Seven Mile Beach and shared meals at the retreat and in Lennox's local restaurants.

You'll stay in your own private beachfront apartment overlooking Seven Mile Beach. Social when you want, privacy when you need it.

After more than a decade hosting surf and yoga retreats in Panama, Waluaa brings that experience home.

Come to surf. Leave knowing how. Head home feeling more like yourself.
