Surf

“There are a million ways to surf, and as long as you're smiling, you're doing it right.”
Unknown Author

Welcome to some of the world’s best waves! Do you dream of crystal clear waters and warm sunny days? Want to learn how to surf or improve your confidence in the water? Join us in falling in love with Fiji’s pristine ocean.

Our local surf coaches will guide you in the water and take you to the waves best suited to your ability.

Yoga

Our yoga is designed specifically for surfers. During the week, we will practice on our mats every day. The practice will help you improve your surfing through developing more balance and strength both mentally and physically.

To build confidence and set goals, there will be two journaling sessions during the week mixed in with mindfulness meditation, yoga nidra, and sound bath healing.

Food

Our chef chooses fresh and local ingredients to create delicious meals. If we are going to have a long day out on the water, yummy and nutritious snacks will be packed to keep us fuelled up, ready to go. Having a healthy and balanced menu is important to keep us ready for the surf. Our meals are mostly vegetarian with some fish and chicken options.

Our Story

“The first time I tried to navigate surfing on my own— I hired a boat and ended up paying for a really expensive trip to no where.

Someone put me in contact with Dream Surf Fiji and I had the best few days of surf. I felt safe in the water, I caught waves bigger than I thought I ever could, and we were always in the right spot in the line up.

Over the years, confidence in the water has translated to confidence in my life.

We created this Surf and Yoga Retreat for people who are as in love with surfing as we are. This week long retreat in October takes place during the end of Fiji’s surf season and is for you if you want to catch the surf bug, build a foundation in mindfulness practices, and experience the healing powers of the islands .

Everything is taken care of. All you have to do is show up and be ready to go.”

Bridget K.
I was lucky to spend a weekend with Lea teaching yoga at a yoga and surf retreat. The yoga sessions were very enjoyable and fit well for what was needed at the moment (waking up or easing into the evening). Best yoga in Fiji!

Julia H.
I am so thankful and grateful to be able to call Fiji home and I can honestly say this is the best trip I have done in my 8 years of living in this beautiful country. Lako Yoga created an exceptional experience for us over the 4 day retreat. From the delicious vegan meals to the calming and reflective yoga sessions and the surfing that felt both safe and allowed me to push my limits. This was the best yoga and surf retreat I could have asked for. Thank you so much to the wonderful team and I will be eagerly awaiting the next one ❤️

Katie D.
The best yoga studio and retreat in Fiji! Lea is an amazing instructor no matter if you're a lifelong yogi or practicing yoga for the first time. I went on a three-night surf and yoga retreat with Lako Yoga Fiji and it was so fun and rejuvenating. The food and accommodation was amazing! Each meal was fresh, healthy, and made with love. I will definitely be joining another retreat and attending Lako Yoga Classes whenever I can!
