Programma
This is the surf community they have always wanted: a lifestyle of warm water waves in perfect climates, the most stunning surf destinations, and dreamy experiences, all while shoulder to shoulder with a tight-knit tribe of incredible people. Lanka Living is a place where like-minded legends gather from all corners of the globe to share epic moments, eat, surf, explore, vibe, and repeat. They were born on the tropical beaches of Sri Lanka and are now bringing this lifestyle to new surf break destinations.
This is where things get serious. Lanka Living loves to have a good time, but surfing will always be the biggest focus during the retreat. It does not matter if you are a beginner or experienced, surfing is challenging. They are here to help you take your abilities to the next level.
Unfortunately, often what holds you back in tour surfing cannot be fixed by simply trying harder, and even with the best coaching improvement can take years. The curriculum attacks the art of surfing from every angle, they combine wave theory and ocean mechanics classes with slow-mo video analysis and a homegrown surf-specific physical preparation method they call "surfitness". They believe that only a complete approach helps you:
- Improve your theoretical knowledge and how to read waves yourself
- Practice good technique under proper supervision
- Increase your physical capacity to surf longer and safer which can empower you to continue to improve not just during the retreat, but every single time you get in the water
You will walk away from the retreat not only as a better surfer but with an in-depth knowledge of how to keep improving and break through plateaus on your own. The retreat can host nine to 18 people depending on how many share their space. Even though the duration of this camp is eight days and seven nights, you can choose the length between one and three weeks.
The lessons
In the mornings, you will grab your board and head down for your lesson. For both level one (beginners) and level two (intermediates), the lesson is two hours long and divided into two parts:
1. Surf theory - An in-depth analysis of proper technique and essential ocean knowledge under the watchful eye of your instructors. Get your popups right on the beach, and you will get them right in the water
2. Practical - Surf with your instructor right next to you in the water. Put into practice what you have just learned and get immediate feedback on your mistakes.
They keep the class sizes small so that you get the focused attention you need to take more waves and have even more fun. Not only that, but they also sometimes combine lessons with road trips, so you get to surf at a variety of beautiful breaks.
Surfitness™
Surfitness™ is an intense, time-efficient training program created to keep your body fit and ready for the physical demands of surfing no matter where you are in the world. Too often, they hear about students who go on week-long surf holidays with the best of intentions, only to find they are exhausted after the first hour and take three to four days for their bodies to acclimatize. That is where Surfitness comes in.
Short, intense, and equipment-lite, they have created workouts combining a unique blend of power, mobility, and endurance-based exercises that can be done anywhere, so that even if you do not live by the ocean, whenever the swell hits you are always ready. Build surf-specific strength, improve your overall endurance, and prevent injuries all in 30 minutes or less. Train with absolutely no equipment in your backyard or your hotel room, so no matter your lifestyle there is never any excuse not to train. The Surfitness sessions are held three times weekly at the retreat.
Video analysis
Three times per week, they bust out the trusty video camera, film the students, and go through the footage frame by frame as a group. What you are doing on the board often feels a lot different from what it looks like and the ability to see yourself on camera in slow motion gives you a unique perspective that is essential for refining "on the wave" techniques and making the jump from beginner to intermediate.
Lanka Living family
The squad mentality at Lanka Living is what sets them apart from other ordinary surf retreats. Participants and staff alike surf together, eat together, live together, explore together, and party together. They are a tight-knit tribe of young, social, open-minded people from a host of different countries and cultures, all brought together by a love of sun, surf, and sweet tunes. Whether going solo or traveling with a friend or partner, you will get the most out of Lanka Living if you want to experience a real sense of community and keep in touch with friends from all over the world long after the retreat is over.
Why Lanka Living?
In a nutshell, Lanka Living is for those looking to experience surf life in paradise. They are super social and active legends who like to keep fit and surf. They pack the schedule full of activities like surf trips, adventures, beach volleyball tournaments, sunset cocktails, and beach parties. This is not your average surf retreat.
Customization
Who knows your needs better than you? They know how to customize your surf vacation according to your needs and desires. Together, they can create a quality, unforgettable surf experience tailor-made just for you.
Personal attention
They believe in people and communication. Therefore, they insist on providing you with personal attention in and outside of the water to enhance the overall experience and learning curve.
You create stories
Their holistic experiences will enrich and expose you to different cultures, landscapes, fascinating people, tastes, and, of course, perfect waves. All together, you create a story - one you will want to tell.
Are you a beginner, intermediate, or advanced surfer?
They divide classes into levels 1 to 3 so that you can get the coaching that is right for you and surf at breaks best suited to your skill level. They will chat with you about your experience when booking the retreat. It is common for surfers to move to level 2 when they are ready, and for level 2 to move to level 1 on bigger swell days or just to hone in on more basic fundamentals. Instructors are focused on setting you up to take the most waves, be safe in the water, and have the most fun.
Locatie
The camp will take place in Puerto Escondido, Oaxaca, Mexico. Mexico’s Puerto Escondido is a magical place, a small vibrant town where Mexicans and world travelers are vibing and surfing. It is famous for its cozy, authentic beach ambiance; no big hotels, no mainstream. it is rated one of the top surfing destinations in the world. Learn to surf, explore, do yoga, take Spanish lessons, swim, snorkel, sky-dive, shop at the local markets, rent a scooter, do a horse ride, or get a massage. Anything you desire.
Mexican surf spots
1. Puerto Escondido
Puerto Escondido was discovered by surfers in the late 1950s and has since then gained a worldwide reputation. The town is renowned for the famous “Mexican Pipeline” wave at Zicatela Beach. Along with the “Pipeline“ on Hawaii’s Northshore, “Mexpipe“ is one of the most powerful barrels in the world. In autumn it can reach up to 10 meters in height.
2. Carrizalillo
This bay contains a beautiful beach that usually has the best waves to learn to surf. Its waves break deep on a rock reef and work best when the swell is coming from a southern direction. With long soft waves, this beach offers the beginner surfer the opportunity to try and stand up twice on the same wave. It is nearly certain that a learner will be successful in surfing at Carrizalillo.
3. La Punta
The small waves of the point are ideal for beginners, especially those who are ‘goofy’ or left-footed. The medium-sized waves are a favorite of intermediate surfers. These waves are large and slow, break from right to left, and start at the rocks and end at the sand on the beach. The best time for beginners is at high tide. At low tide, the waves are a bit faster and are shaped like a tube.
4. Marinero
This beach is best when the swell direction is from the north. It has waves that break both left and right onto deep water with a sandy beach below. Marinero could be classed as the “little Zicatela”. Here you will often get a shorter, faster, more tube-like wave that is ideal for beginners who want a bit more of an adrenalin rush.
5. Zicatela
Zicatela has a stronger and faster wave, which breaks in deep sandy water, making it ideal for experts. There are waves all year round. In the winter, there can be periods of smaller waves, giving advanced learners the opportunity to test their newfound surfing skills.
6. La Barra de Colotepec
This beach is recommended for intermediate surfers. The waves are generally tubular in nature and high tide is best for developing surfing skills. The river Colotepec empties into this area, thus producing different wave directions and peaks. The best waves break between November and March with currents from the north.
Eten
During this camp, you will be served seven brunches and a barbecue included in the price. There is no hunger like post-surf hunger. Not only is nutrition an incredibly important part of staying fueled and healthy for the surf life, but Lanka Living strongly believes that part of life in paradise is delicious food. Meal time at Lanka Living is like all the best parts about family dinner, but with more beer and without mum telling you to finish your greens.
You will eat together as a squad, swap stories about the day’s surf antics, and make plans for the night to come. The menu consists primarily of healthy, plant-based goodness, with a rotating selection of local and international dishes that make use of the best quality local produce. Lanka Living Surf throws in the occasional seafood dish when they can find a great catch at the local fish market, as well as the odd chicken dish for meat lovers, but the menu is mostly plant-based.
But do not stress. They believe in healthy, big portions, lots of flavors, and supporting the local farmers and fishermen at every mealtime. Whatever your dietary requirements, Lanka Living Surf will do their best to accommodate. Send them an inquiry about your dietary requirements.

Beach parties
Day off surf tomorrow? Best believe it’s time to gather the squad and head out to one of the best beach parties. These parties start late and finish late, so throw on your best party shirt, and enjoy some pre-drinks and tunes with them before heading to tear up the dancefloor side by side with your Lanka Living tribe.
With Lanka Living, the party and music scene is absolutely booming. With some incredible local Techno and House DJs on the rise, the crew is always clued into the best parties and events. Do not like parties. Have no fear! There are many relaxing places that are party and you can always enjoy time on the rooftop.
Boat parties
Once a month, they linked up with some other surf camps in the area and sailed out and threw a big boat party. Freeflow arrack, unlimited beers, and some of the best local and foreign DJ talents.
Trips
They are serious about surfing at Lanka Living and spend most of their time on surf-related activities, but they still like to get away and combine a bit of sightseeing when they can. They normally plan one full-day squad trip, sometimes to beautiful secluded beaches further along the coast, others to inland waterfalls. They do not want to ruin the surprise for you, so chat with them when you book your retreat about squad trips.
