Surf With Support
Progress Without Pressure
You do not need to be a confident or experienced surfer to join. Sessions are designed to help you enjoy moving in the ocean and feel energised rather than exhausted.

- Beginners welcome
- Progressing surfers supported
- No competitive atmosphere
- Safety-led surf selection
- Sessions adapted to energy levels
- Time to enjoy the ocean
Your Time in the Ocean
Surfing for Beginners and Progressing Surfers
Fuerteventura has different surf areas and a range of conditions. Daily plans will be selected around ability, wind, swell and the safest experience for the group.
Beginners
Learn the Foundations
Build confidence with the equipment, beach environment, pop-up technique and the basics of catching waves.
Progression
Develop Your Surfing
Improve your positioning, wave selection and confidence in conditions that suit your current ability.
Experience
Enjoy the Whole Journey
The retreat is about confidence, enjoyment and spending meaningful time in the ocean rather than chasing perfect performance.
Beyond the Surf
Paddle Boarding, Island Days and Surf-Lodge Life
Surfing is part of the retreat, but ocean wellbeing is the wider purpose. There is time to paddle board, swim, rest, eat well and enjoy Fuerteventura without feeling that every day needs to be busy.
Paddle Board and Breathe
Explore sheltered water at a gentle pace and enjoy a calm, refreshing connection with the coastline.
Rest Without Guilt
Balance ocean time with sunshine, quiet moments and proper rest without feeling that you should be doing more.
Shared Evenings
Enjoy relaxed food, conversation and social time after a day in the ocean.
Genuine Connection
Meet other women through shared experiences without pressure or a forced group atmosphere.
Food and Shared Time
Easy Mornings and Relaxed Evenings
Nourishing food helps create the rhythm of the retreat. Breakfast prepares you for the day, while relaxed evening meals give everyone time to slow down, talk and reconnect.
Exact meal arrangements and inclusions will be confirmed within the final retreat package.
Breakfast
Start the Day Together
Enjoy relaxed mornings and prepare for the day’s surfing and island adventures.
Evenings
Food, Stories and Laughter
Slow down after the day and enjoy relaxed social time around the lodge.
Travelling Independently?
Come on Your Own. You Won’t Be Alone.
Many women would love to take a surf trip but do not have somebody available to travel with. Salty Sisters makes it easier to take that step independently.
Surf sessions, meals, trips and relaxed lodge life create natural opportunities to get to know the other guests without forcing the group atmosphere.
There is also space to rest and enjoy time independently. Being part of the retreat does not mean every moment has to be organised.
- Friendly for solo travellers
- No need to attend with a friend
- Different ages welcome
- Supportive group atmosphere
- Shared experiences and meals
- Space for quiet time
Come for the sunshine and surfing, but expect the friendships and shared experiences to become an equally important part of the retreat.

Move, Rest and Reconnect
Enjoy surfing, paddle boarding, ocean swimming or free time depending on the conditions and how the group feels.

More Ocean Time and Space to Unwind
Bring the week together with more time outside, relaxed evenings and moments that help the experience settle in.
