Sea Her Rise Surf Retreats – Terms and Conditions

Please take a moment to read through our terms and conditions before booking your retreat. By making a booking, paying a deposit, or otherwise confirming participation in one of our trips, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be legally bound by these Terms and Conditions.

Bookings, Payments and Refunds

  • We want you to feel completely at ease with your decision. After you pay your deposit, you’ll have 14 days to change your mind (cooling off period) with a full refund. Beyond this period, the deposit is non-refundable as we begin preparing your retreat experience.

  • Full payment is due 60 days before the retreat start date.

  • If payment is not received by the due date, your place may be released.

  • If you book within 60 days of the retreat start date the full balance is due immediately.

  • All payments made within 60 days of the retreat are non-refundable. This is because we need to secure and pay for retreat inclusions in advance, and it becomes difficult to refill spaces so close to the retreat date.

  • Cancellations made after the 14-day cooling-off period and up to 60 days before the retreat begins will receive a 50% refund on payments made, minus the non-refundable deposit.

  • If you can no longer attend, you’re welcome to transfer your booking to another woman (35+) at no extra cost, as long as you notify us in writing.

Retreat Changes

  • We may make small changes to the schedule, instructors or activities if needed for safety, weather or operational reasons.

  • If surf conditions impact the planned sessions, we will adjust activities to something suitable and safe. Refunds are not provided for weather related changes.
