You will stay in a relaxed beachfront accommodation, just steps away from the ocean. Wake up to the sound of the waves, tropical nature, and island life. Different room options are available depending on your preference and budget:
- Beachfront rooms with air-conditioner (private or double)
- Beachfront rooms without air-conditioner (natural breeze, simple and authentic)
- Bungalows with fan (private or shared)
- Shared rooms for a more affordable option
All rooms are simple, clean, and comfortable, designed to blend with the natural surroundings rather than luxury standards. Please note that this is a remote island. The experience is intentionally basic, raw, and authentic. There is no luxury but there is nature, simplicity, and a unique way of living that many find deeply refreshing.
Programme
This is not just a surf camp, and not just a yoga retreat. It is a space to slow down, reconnect, and experience island life in a raw and meaningful way. Designed for all levels, from beginners to more experienced practitioners, this holiday adapts to you. Each day flows with the rhythm of the ocean, the tides, and the weather, combining movement, rest, and adventure. Beyond surf and yoga, you will explore waterfalls, go on island-hopping trips, enjoy sunrise meditations, evening workshops, and slow moments surrounded by nature. Hosted by Rainhard (surf instructor) and Mimi (yoga, meditation, and sophrology teacher), and supported by a team of local instructors and staff, this holiday is both a human and cultural experience.
This is not a luxury program. It is a raw, simple, and authentic island experience. Your journey begins with your arrival at Virac Airport (VRC), where SOMAMI will welcome and bring you to the retreat location. After check-in and some time to settle in, you will gather for a welcome circle to connect, set intentions, and introduce the experience. Each day is designed to follow the natural rhythm of the ocean, tides, and weather conditions. Mornings often begin with meditation, breathwork, or gentle movement, followed by a surf session adapted to your level with guidance from certified instructors.
Throughout the program, you will experience daily yoga practices (Hatha, Vinyasa, and Yin), as well as sophrology sessions to deepen body awareness, relaxation, and integration. Afternoons are a mix of rest, free time, and exploration. Depending on the conditions, you will organize activities such as waterfall visits, jungle hikes, coconut hill sunsets, and island hopping experiences. Evenings are slower and more introspective, with sunset sessions, workshops, sharing circles, or simply time to unwind, connect, and enjoy the simplicity of island life. Over the 10 days, you will have multiple surf sessions, opportunities for progression, and time to integrate both physically and mentally.
Some sessions may include guidance, feedback, or video support depending on conditions. The schedule may vary slightly from day to day to ensure the best surf conditions and overall experience, allowing for a balance between activity, rest, and spontaneous moments. All logistics are taken care of, so you simply arrive and experience. The program follows the rhythm of the ocean, tides, and weather. Activities may shift slightly to ensure the best experience and safety conditions.

Lieu du séjour
This holiday takes place on a remote and untouched island in the Philippines, far from mass tourism and busy crowds. Surrounded by jungle, ocean, and rolling hills, the environment is raw, peaceful, and deeply grounding. The area is known for its consistent surf, uncrowded waves, and crystal clear water. Just steps from the accommodation, you will find the ocean, quiet beaches, and endless nature to explore.
Beyond the surf, the island offers waterfalls, scenic viewpoints, coconut hills, and nearby islands accessible by boat. Daily life here is simple and slow, with a strong connection to nature and local culture. There are a few small local restaurants and shops nearby, but overall, this is a place to disconnect from modern life and reconnect with yourself and your surroundings.
Repas
Meals are prepared with fresh, local ingredients, often inspired by traditional Filipino cuisine. You can expect a variety of dishes including rice, vegetables, fish, and fresh seafood, depending on the day and availability. The island offers a simple and authentic food experience. There are a few nearby restaurants and resorts, but most serve similar local-style meals, reflecting the culture and resources of the area. Vegetarian and vegan options are available, but as the island is remote, SOMAMI kindly asks you to inform them of any dietary requirements in advance so they can adapt the meals accordingly. Food is shared in a relaxed and communal atmosphere, adding to the overall experience of connection, simplicity, and island living.
