Yoga & relaxation at surf camp Spain

In addition to the waves, we also have a mat waiting for you - with daily yoga sessions in the yoga house or outdoors with the sea as a backdrop. Whether you are already practiced or simply curious: our experienced teachers will guide you mindfully through every class.

Our retreats such as the Salty Sisters Retreat or the Blooming Retreat for women over 40 are particularly popular. They offer space for exchange, peace and regeneration - far away from everyday life.

In small workshops on topics such as mindfulness, breathwork or self-care, you will find new impulses and can come back to yourself. Because for us, surfing also involves pausing - on and off the water.

    A dream! The yoga retreat with Katrin was simply wonderful. Great location right on the beach. Clean accommodation, very lovingly furnished. The food was great and it felt like there was food from morning to night. I was particularly impressed by the good organization of the camp, which was combined with ease and a very friendly atmosphere.

FAQ's Surfcamp Spain A-Frame

Look under How to get here. There you will find all the information on how to get to us.

Our Beach Camp is, as the name suggests, right on the beach. The Oasis Camp is around 400 meters from the beach.

We have a lot of solo travelers as guests. That's not a problem at all. But just like single travelers, we also have friends, couples and families at the camp. It's always a good mix and there's never been a problem. You'll meet lots of other people with whom you can attend surf or yoga classes or meet up for meals. Many new friendships have already been made at A-Frame!

You have the choice between a twin room with another guest (of the same gender) or a private room or studio (for an extra charge).

We are open from mid-September to the beginning of December and from mid-February to the end of May. During the winter break, we offer long-stay options for those who want to stay by the sea for longer and are looking for great accommodation. In the summer months (June, July, August) we are completely closed. But then the waves are too small anyway and El Palmar is very crowded (Spanish summer vacations).

Andalusia is warm all year round. Even the winters are wonderfully mild here and it never actually gets colder than 15 degrees. Here you can find more information about the Surf Report El Palmar.
