PAST DESTINATION
Nicaragua | Surf Jungle

A high-energy jungle and ocean retreat in San Juan del Sur featuring daily movement, breathwork, mindset workshops, surf lessons with professional instructors, and full beach immersion.

Our journey into the heart of the Guatemalan surf jungle was nothing short of transformative. We spent our mornings carving through the glassy, uncrowded breaks of the Pacific coast and our afternoons tucked away in a lush canopy of emerald green. Between the rhythmic pulse of the tides and the grounding energy of the rainforest, we found a perfect balance—reconnecting with ourselves through sunrise yoga on the sand and nourishing, locally-sourced volcanic soil feasts. It wasn't just a retreat; it was a return to the wild, leaving us with sun-kissed skin and a profound sense of inner stillness.
