The surf and wellness retreat on the quiet side of Byron Bay

Slow down. Learn to surf with confidence. Head home feeling more like yourself.

For over ten years we've run surf and yoga retreats in Panama for guests from all over the world. Now we're bringing Waluaa home to Lennox Head. Same personalised coaching. Same slow-living philosophy. Same uncrowded wave

If you're an adult who wants to learn to surf properly, move your body and take a real break, there aren't a heap of options in Australia.

So we built one. A boutique four-night surf and yoga retreat for adults who want to slow down, find real confidence in the water and enjoy a proper holiday. The same experience thousands of our guests have loved in Panama… now on the NSW coast.

Same reason we chose Panama over the busy side of Costa Rica. Quieter and more real. It's also home for us (hey… Vickie and Sergio here!), so we know exactly where to take you.

• Walk to the beach barefoot

• Coffee on the one main street

• Uncrowded waves where locals still outnumber visitors

• Surfers out before the town wakes, so you learn in peace

• Seven miles of beach to walk off the week's stress

• A host who knows your name (because we live here too)

• Cafés, trails and hidden corners only locals know
