Surf and Yoga in Spain
Each morning you will wake to our daily Yoga lessons on the beach, or in our purpose built Yoga room set in the beautiful gardens of La Hosteria. Refreshed and ready for the day ahead you will sit down to a delicious healthy breakfast before heading down to the long sandy bay of Loredo. A quick change in the surf schools changing rooms and a stroll to Loredo beach.
Loredo beach is just short of three miles long, making this a perfect beach for all levels from complete beginners to pro-surfers. The wide sweeping bay offers consistent surf all year round and is particularly better in the Spring and Autumn months.
After a hard day surfing, hanging in the sun and swinging in our hammocks dinner is served by our in-house chef. A little tipple and off to bed for another full day of surfing and Yoga.
Our surf coaches are fully qualified and trained beach lifeguards. Our bi-lingual Yoga teacher Betty has traveled to many countries teaching the fine art of yoga.
During your stay there will be opportunities to head into the fashionable city of Santander for a spot of shopping and eating out.
Due to the nature of this surf and yoga holiday numbers are limited and dates are set.

Surf CoachingThe surf lessons take place every morning from 10am till 1pm, your team of dedicated surf coaches will tailor the lessons to suit your level, with both in water, beach lessons and small lectures on rip currents, choosing a wave, how to paddle better and improving your "pop-up"
