No egos, just professional training in a fun, engaging atmosphere!
Surf Fit isn't about egos, who's better than who, who's fittest, strongest or the best surfer. It's about you, fun and learning. The atmosphere during our retreats is relaxed, engaging and inclusive. It's all set up to be a pleasant experience in a stunning location. You can't learn and progress if you feel that you've got to try and compete with others, or you're not very confident about your surfing or fitness which results in anxiety. Our instructors are extremely understa

Article written for a Dutch Surf Magazine by one of our retreat attendees last April.
Massive thanks to Robert Verspui for writing this article about his experience of Surf Fit Life and how he came to be on the retreat in April 2018 with his fellow surfers Jorgen and Onno (collectively known as The Pancake Crew). And massive thanks again to Robert for translating the article into English from Ducth. The Pancake Crew has been charging Mullaghmore and thought it was time to acquaint themselves with Nazare. I've moved the paragraphs around a little so the rest of

Surf Fit Retreats Nazare Experience
Our Surf Fitness retreats are based in Nazare, Portugal. This is an absolutely stunning fishing town on the west coast about 1.5 hours above Lisbon. Nazare has become a 2nd home for Surf Fit's Andrew 'Cotty' Cotton. Cotty is a professional big wave surfer and he helped Garrett McNamara to pioneer Nazare from the early days in 2010! He was welcomed by the town with open arms and now really feels at home there. Nazare is now the big wave Mecca of the world with the planet's big

Our retreats are open to surfers (kiters, SUPers and any ocean sports really) of any level. We've had complete beginners, intermediate and expert in the same group as our small groups allow us to tailor the programme specifically to you. We will of c

Life long skills, techniques and fitness
Here at Surf Fit we do things a little differently. We think about our guests well after they've left our retreats. For us it's all about the long term. Our aims are simple: * teach you skills and techniques to become more confident in the ocean * teach you how to become and stay fit, especially for surfing * have some fun along the way Although our retreats are professionally delivered and cover a range of skills and techniques, they are always delivered in a fun and engagin
