Wild Spirit Surf Retreat
Surfing meets nature-based Inner Work for conscious Individuals and Leaders ¦ Spring 2026, exact dates coming soon!

The Package
What's expecting you in the Wild Spirit Surf Retreat
Surfing
Join Johanna, Matthias, and Kaspar in the waves! We celebrate surfing and the ocean as a circle of friends - whilst supporting the unique individual surf experience.
Surfing allows us to connect to the ocean in a unique way, experiencing ourselves as a part of this magnificent force of nature.
The area around Lourinhã and Peniche offers a range of different spots catering to beginners, advanced and expert surfers. We offer transportation and stoke to explore these together, or you can roam it freely on your own.
For those who wish, beginner and advanced surfing lessons can be booked with the camp.
Inner Work
As highly trained and experienced facilitators and coaches, we create a unique process that guides you in harnessing the power of connecting with the ocean and the land for your personal and professional growth.
Our approach blends surfing with frameworks and tools from leadership coaching and personal development. With a view to strengthen access to your internal resources and powers and strive for more balance, you will experience ways to seek for inspiration and mirrors in nature that help you guide yourself in your personal development process and in addressing specific questions.
Our daily flow interweaves 3–4 hours of Inner Work with 1–2 Surf sessions. We use techniques such as awareness-based introspection in nature, body-centered somatic movement, systemic coaching and constellation work, and a range of group work techniques.
The approaches we put forward are inspired by the work of great minds and traditions like Bill Plotkin, The Conscious Leadership Group, The Origin Teachings of the Delicate Lodge, Thomas Hübl, and many others.
Housing
Accommodation & Food
We live and eat together close to nature during this week. Choose from a range of accommodation options such as Double and Shared Rooms, Glamping, and Camping.
The Far End Surf House kitchen team is creating the healthy and nourishing magic that strengthens us for the daily surfing and the Inner Work.
Mixing it up
On a flat Day
Whilst swell and surfing conditions are consistent in the time window and surfspots we choose, the occasional flat day is always in the realm of the possible.
We see the moods of mother nature as part of the fun: a great invitation to explore alternative ways of moving and connecting with the sea and the land. It's flat? Let's go play anyhow! Horseriding, Snorkeling, Bouldering, Rock Climbing, or Trailrunning are things we personally love ...
The Far End Surf House
The Far End Surf House is located in Lourinhã, close to Surfing Hotspot Peniche. This beautiful place will host our circle exclusively! It allows us close access to different surfing spots as well as a lush and secluded space in nature for deep introspection and group work.
Estonian Surfchamp Artti and Isabella will host us, coming up with unique pescatarian food creations putting magic in our bellies and our hearts.
Meet the Team
Three friends and professionals who share three passions: surfing, personal development, living in tune with nature. One day we decided: let's put this together into a magic mix and share our passion with the world!
