Mentawai

Longboard

10 days, 9 nights


~March 17-24th, 2025 
~March 24th-31st, 2025

Join us on this opportunity of a lifetime to yoga, surf and explore the breathtaking Mentawai Islands. We have hand selected the perfect resort to host us with heaps of surrounding waves for our ability, and the perfect season in mind for long boarders. The Mentawai Islands is one of the most stunning locations in the world. With its crystal blue waters, white sand beaches, colourful coral reefs and palm tree back drop, we promise once you're here you'll never want to leave!

We have exclusive use of the resort, which means we are able to select where and when we surf, and what time suits our group for yoga and other activities. This is a major selling factor, as most others resorts have one boat that must be shared among other guests with all different surfing abilities, not ideal for long boarders or novice surfers. The main factor in picking this resort to host us compared to the others, was for this reason. Not to mention the many other reasons that it is amongst the best in the Mentawais!

 

Accommodation, food, yoga, surf coaching, video analysis and unlimited boat usage to take us to the perfect waves to suit our ability are among some of the things all included.

We take a max of 5 guests to make sure you’ll get lots of waves and one on one time. Please note that surfing experience is necessary for this retreat. You must be able to catch your own waves and feel comfortable in the water. 

We will have a daily yoga practice in the shala at our beautiful resort, that will help you regain your strength and ease your surfer muscles. Our teacher will incorporate different forms of breath work into the practice that can help you with situations that may arise in the water. We find that the pairing of yoga, breath and surfing go hand in hand in more ways than one. No matter your yoga experience we can cater the practice to you, giving you the challenges, explanations or rest that you need.

·Exclusive use of the resort! This means its only our group and we will only take a max of 5 guests to keep the retreat small and intimate. Which means more waves for you!

The Mentawai Islands are so incredibly special for many reasons, one of them being that they are extremely remote! This also means they can be a little bit of an adventure to get too. SEAFOLK will do everything we can to make this experience as seamless as possible for you. You will need to allow for a day on either side of the retreat for your travel. You will fly into Padang the night before the retreat starts. We have included in the price of the retreat your hotel in Padang the arrival day and departure day. We catch the ferry the next morning (the day the retreat starts) at 7am. On the way back home, the ferry arrives quite late, we will stay in a hotel in Padang, and then fly out the next morning. It may sound complicated but that’s why we’re here!

To make it stress free and easy for you :)

 

WHAT'S NOT INCLUDED:

·Flights

·Surfboard Rental and transport fee

·Insurance

·Alchohol 

 

ADDITIONAL:

PRICE:

For 8 days, 7 nights on our private island including all transfers and 2 nights hotel in Padang: $2800 USD 

 

We have done a lot of research to find the most reasonably priced place that we feel is suited for our standard of retreats. Trust us when we say most other places with the same standards are the same price or even more. We believe this experience will be worth every penny! We hope you decide to join us while the Mentawai Islands are still a hidden gem. Unfortunately, this won’t last forever :)
