8 Day Surf, Yoga & Soulful Living Retreat at The Salty Peniche, Portugal

Tucked along Portugal’s rugged Atlantic coast, Peniche is a surf town with soul—raw, simple, and full of good energy. Long sandy beaches stretch in every direction, offering consistent waves for every level and space to breathe between sessions.

Just steps from The Salty, you’ll find beach bars, hidden coves, and sea-view cafés where time slows down. Paddle out in the morning, stretch it all out in yoga, then wind down on the rooftop with a cold drink and a view that never gets old.

Wander the backstreets for grilled sardines, vegan cafés, and surf shops buzzing with life.

Take a short ride to the storybook town of Óbidos, or hop down to Lisbon for a day of city rooftops, riverside strolls, and pastel de nata.

Peniche is the kind of place where you come to reset and end up staying for the vibe.

Fuel your flow with fresh, local, and nourishing meals. At The Salty Peniche, your days start with a free, healthy breakfast buffet served in the sunshine of the poolside garden dining area. Fuel up with freshly baked bread, fruits, natural yogurts, homemade hummus, jams, cereals, nuts, cheeses, chorizo, eggs, and a rotating selection of warm dishes. Sip on organic teas, Nespresso coffee, or a cinnamon & lemon-infused water as you ease into the day.

In the evenings, join us for up to four optional group dinners in the poolside garden restaurant or on the sea view rooftop, think Portuguese tapas and wine nights, BBQs with grilled fish, veggie options and sangria, or sourdough pizza and wine sessions. Always relaxed, always optional, these gatherings are all about sharing food, stories, and sunsets with fellow travellers. Join when it suits your flow.

Salty Bites All Day Menu – Baja Mexican

Think fresh, flavour-packed Baja-Mexican eats served all day; tacos, nachos, quesadillas paired with local wines, chilled corona beers, coconut & mango margaritas, sangria, ciders, and refreshing kombucha. Sun, sea, and seriously good food.

Surf and Free Time

Your stay includes 5 surf lessons and premium surfboard access for 6 full days, the perfect way to experience Peniche’s reputation as one of Europe’s top surf destinations. From beginner-friendly beach breaks to the legendary Supertubos, the area offers waves for every level. Additional lessons can be arranged on-site for an extra fee.

And when you’re not in the water

• Stroll the whitewashed streets of Peniche, with its seafood restaurants, surf shops, and working harbour
• Take the coastal path to Cabo Carvoeiro and watch the waves crash against dramatic cliffs
• Hop on a ferry to the Berlenga Islands for nature, hiking, and crystal-clear waters
• Discover hidden beaches dotted along the Silver Coast
• Unwind on our sunny terrace or relax in the garden with nothing on the schedule

This is your time to surf, discover, and embrace the vibrant spirit of Portugal’s Silver Coast.
