About the Retreat
Wake to the sound of waves in Panama City, then sweat with the crew before you hit the coast. This isn't a silent retreat—it's 9 days of surf, strength work, and nights out with new friends. You'll move from the city to Santa Catalina, where Pacific swells, jungle hikes, and rooftop sunsets shape each day.
Mornings start with optional sunrise yoga or a group workout. Midday you're in the water or on an excursion. Afternoons are for exploring, napping, or finding a good café. Evenings bring group dinners, rooftop hangouts, and downtime by the ocean. You set the pace; nothing is mandatory.
You’ll leave with new friends, a stronger body, and real surf experience. City to Sea is built for people who want to train, travel, and actually enjoy it.
