Our local surf coaches will divide you into skills appropriate groups and take you to the right surf location for your abilities.

Yes. Our retreats are designed to welcome women travelling on their own as well as friends travelling together. You'll share the experience with a small group of women who enjoy surfing, adventure and meeting new people.

However all our rooms are private king or single bed rooms so you can enjoy some privacy and time on your own to rest and reset to make the most of your experience.

From your very first session, you’ll improve your pop-up, balance, and turns with clear, practical guidance from expert coaches—always with safety first.

Local expert coaches will spot your mistakes and guide your progress every session.

A video analysis session is included to help you progress as quickly as possible.

All equipment is included:

• A topnotch surfboard quiver to choose the best board for you - no need to deal with the hassle and expense of bringing surfboards from home

• Rashvests, surf leash and surf wax

The only thing you need to bring is:

• Swimsuits you are comfortable in. We recommend surf leggings as this reduces surfboard rash and sun burn!

• Reef safe sunscreen

• Surf hat- we prefer surf hats with a hard insert to protect our heads! Ask us for recommendations

The retreat is located in Kuta, on the beautiful south coast of Lombok, Indonesia, surrounded by turquoise waters, tropical landscapes and stunning white-sand beaches.

Kuta is an ideal base for a surf adventure, with a variety of breaks to suit different abilities and conditions. From beginner-friendly waves to more challenging reef breaks, the region offers plenty of opportunities to learn, build confidence and progress your surfing.

With warm water, tropical scenery and a relaxed island atmosphere, it's the perfect setting to spend more time in the ocean, improve your skills and enjoy an unforgettable surf escape with Sea Her Rise.

For our Sea Her Rise retreat, the resort will be exclusively ours, with the entire resort reserved for our group of just 10 women — our 8 participants and the 2 of us hosting. No other guests, just our own little surf community.

Enjoy the freedom to relax, connect, share stories and make the most of your time in Lombok in a space that feels like your own. From mornings before a surf to unwinding by the pool after a day in the ocean, it's your own private tropical escape, shared with women who get you.

Choose Your Private Room

At our Sea Her Rise Lombok retreat, every woman has her own private room, giving you a comfortable space to relax and recharge after a day of surfing and exploring. Our rooms feature air conditioning, a private bathroom and the essentials you need for a comfortable stay.

King Bed Private Room – $3,490

Treat yourself to a little extra room to stretch out in a comfortable king-sized bed (180 x 200 cm). Your room includes air conditioning, a private bathroom with hot water and a workspace, making it a lovely space to unwind after a full day in the ocean.

Single Bed in a Twin Room – $3,190

This option gives you your own private room with a king single bed (120 x 200 cm) in a room designed for twin occupancy. You won't be sharing with another guest, so you'll still have your own private space to relax and recharge. The room includes air conditioning, an ensuite bathroom and hot water.

This option is $300 less than the king room, simply because the bed is smaller.

Both options include the same Sea Her Rise retreat experience. The difference is the bed size and room configuration, so choose whichever suits your comfort and budget best. Whether you prefer a spacious king bed or are happy with a king single, you'll have your own room to retreat to after a day of waves, sunshine and adventure.

Airfares are not included in the retreat cost.

Your adventure begins with a flight to Lombok International Airport (LOP), Indonesia, approximately 20–30 minutes from Kuta.

From Australia, you can fly via Bali or Jakarta, depending on your departure city and available connections. Flights via Singapore or Kuala Lumpur may also be an option.

The best part? Your airport transfers to and from the airport are included! We'll take care of getting you from the airport to our tropical retreat, so you can relax and settle into island life from the moment you arrive.

You can also arrive via fast ferry from Bali. This ferry cost is not included, however, transfers from the harbor in Lombok are included. Ferries generally depart from Padang Bai Harbour in east Bali, with the crossing to Lombok taking approximately 2–2.5 hours, depending on the operator and route.

Once you arrive in Lombok, you'll need to continue by road to Kuta in the south of the island, so allow extra travel time for this part of the journey as well. We can arrange a pickup from the ferry terminal.

We recommend choosing a morning ferry where possible and allowing plenty of time between connections. Ferry schedules can vary, and sea conditions may cause delays, so it's best not to plan a tight connection with an international flight.

Book your travel to Lombok, and we'll help with the rest!

Travel insurance is a non-negotiable requirement for all Sea Her Rise retreat participants.

We require every participant to have comprehensive travel insurance that covers them from the moment their booking is confirmed. If something unexpected happens and you need to cancel, you'll want to know you're protected against eligible cancellation costs.

Your policy must also cover overseas medical emergencies, hospitalisation, emergency evacuation and any surfing or other activities you'll be participating in.

We'll ask you to provide proof of your travel insurance when you book, and we'll check that you have appropriate cover in place.

Please note that Sea Her Rise does not cover any costs associated with cancellations, medical treatment, hospitalisation, emergency evacuation or other unexpected expenses. These costs are your responsibility, which is why having suitable insurance in place from the time of booking is so important.

Don't leave it until the last minute. Organise your cover as soon as you book so you can look forward to your surf adventure with greater peace of mind.

We understand that plans can change, so we want you to understand our cancellation policy before booking.

• Within 14 days of paying your deposit: You can change your mind and receive a full refund.

If you can no longer attend, you can transfer your booking to another woman aged 35 or over at no extra cost, provided you notify us in writing.

If we need to cancel the retreat because minimum numbers aren't reached, we'll offer you a full refund. However, we cannot reimburse flights or other travel expenses.

We strongly recommend arranging comprehensive travel insurance as soon as you book to protect yourself against eligible cancellation costs and unexpected circumstances. Travel insurance covering medical emergencies and surfing activities is also a requirement for all participants.
