Tropical Waters Surf Experience
MARCH 21th-28th 2026
A week of surf, wellness, adventure, and cultural immersion nourishing the mind, body, and soul.
Are you ready to surf pristine tropical waters with uncrowded lineups and lush backdrops? This retreat offers something for all levels—beginners will be guided by trained instructors, and advanced surfers can chase clean, critical waves with our experienced team. A dedicated surf crew is ready to scout the best waves Mother Nature has on tap by foot, truck and boat! We also make sure we have a surf photographer ready to capture the moment for surf review during and footage for you to keep after. Vistamar pairs all the surfing you could desire with handpicked wellness treatments, exciting excursions, delicious made-from-scratch meals, and comfortable lodging. For those less focused on surfing, you can swap some surf time for a dozen other experiences—from horseback mountain explorations, to cooking and Spanish classes, guided hikes, to bike and motorcycle trips to national parks and more!
