“We travel, initially, to lose ourselves; and we travel, next, to find ourselves. We travel to open our hearts and eyes and learn more about the world than our newspapers will accommodate. We travel to bring what little we can, in our ignorance and knowledge, to those parts of the globe whose riches are differently dispersed. And we travel, in essence, to become young fools again – to slow time down and get taken in, and fall in love once more.”

Yoga + Surf Retreat

El Pescadero, Mexico | Baja California Sur
May 1-6, 2026
5 nights
Hosted by:
Stephanie Pither + Adam Horowitz

Ride the waves. Find your flow. Embrace the adventure.

Join us for an unforgettable Yoga + Surf Retreat at Topia Boutique Retreat Center, nestled along the pristine coastline of Baja California Sur. This retreat is designed for all humans seeking the perfect balance of play, exploration, and renewal. Whether you’re paddling out into the surf or grounding yourself on the yoga mat, every moment invites you to move, breathe, and connect—with nature, with others, and with yourself.

Wake up to the sound of the waves and greet the day with energizing yoga sessions that prepare your body for adventure. Then, grab your board and hit the water! Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced surfer, expert instructors will guide you to connect with the ocean’s energy and ride its waves. Feel the thrill of balancing on your board, the salt spray in the air, and the empowering sense of freedom that comes with mastering the surf. Every session is tailored to match your level, ensuring a safe and exhilarating experience.

Beyond the surf, immerse yourself in the region’s breathtaking beauty—hike rugged coastal trails, discover hidden beaches, or unwind with a sunset meditation. Indulge in fresh, nourishing meals, designed to fuel your body and elevate your experience. In the evenings, gather with like-minded souls to share stories, laughter, and the simple joy of slowing down.

This retreat is more than just a getaway—it’s an invitation to step outside your comfort zone, embrace adventure, and rediscover balance in a way that feels effortless and fun. Whether you're seeking excitement, relaxation, or both, Baja is calling.
