Over 20 years of
Women Only Surfing Lessons
Established in 2003, Surf Goddess was the world’s first ‘surf retreat’ for women who want to go on a ‘surf camp’, but with the inclusions of daily yoga, spa treatments and wellness workshops found on a luxury retreat vacation. The Surf Goddess coaching program was inspired by our founder, Chelsea Ross, who was taught surfing by a woman, and realized that women learn surfing differently than men and that we needed our own approach for introducing women to surfing…at any age or fitness level.
From there, we developed a surf retreat program, that holistically addresses a woman’s unique physical strengths and challenges, our relationship with the ocean and our goals and intentions of why we want to surf.

Our mission is still the same today and it’s not just about teaching women how to surf on their retreat, but to help create a generation of women wave-riders who will share the soul of surfing around the world.
We have introduced thousands of women to surfing. If you have never surfed before, you will surprise yourself by standing up on the board by the end of your first lesson! We also respect that every woman is on her own journey and our women’s surfing program allows you to progress comfortably at your own pace throughout the week.

Sound healing is known to reduce ‘beta-wave’ brain waves and increase the ‘theta-waves’ within the brain.

The frequencies generated from the ancient instruments played in the pyramids, such as the enormous gongs, large pow wow drum, Himalayan bowls or the very emotive didgeridoo have healing effects and relaxing results. Sound has long been recognised as a method for healing, and is often one of the most successful ways to rebalance and harmonize inner health.
