The retreat vibes
This week-long retreat is for intermediate to advanced surfers who are looking to progress their surfing. Join us for a 7-day all-inclusive retreat where you’ll have the opportunity to be coached by one of the best surf coaches globally, Matt Scorringe. From being an Olympic surf coach to a dad, Matt brings all aspects of learning to the table.
Together, we will tune in to how we help you reach your surfing goals, looking to improve your technique with coaching in and out of the water, leveraging video analysis to help highlight what you are doing well and what you can improve on.
You will be surfing with verdant views of palm trees on the beautiful white sand beaches of Central Nicaragua. Our isolated location allows us to surf the emptiest waves in Nicaragua. Based on the changing tides and conditions, we will make sure to take you to the best breaks each day.
It’s time to surf!
Matt Scorringe & TAOS
“From the moment I first stood up on a wave, my life has revolved around surfing. My passion for coaching has grown out of the knowledge and skills I’ve gained both as a competitive surfer and as the caddy for one of the world’s best surfers.”
After stepping down from professional surfing, Matt founded The Art Of Surfing (TAOS) with a mission to help all surfers fulfil their potential – combining the art of crafting a surfer’s personal style with the science behind mastering the perfect technique and over the last decade, Matt has coached thousands of surfers from over 40 countries to better surfing.
Over the last ten years, Matt have also been the lead coach building Surfing New Zealand’s high-performance pathway programme and was appointed as the NZ Surfing Olympic Coach at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics.
Matt’s coaching programmes specialise in technique and video analysis coaching to help surfers of all levels improve their technique to break through their surfing plateaus.
Where?
Resting on the central coast of Nicaragua, this location is only an hour and a half away from Managua International Airport. One of the highlights of this location is the beachfront swim-up bar. Guests can choose from a variety of handmade tropical cocktails to sip on and enjoy oceanside. When you are ready to surf, there is a variety of waves to choose from – perfect for all levels and abilities. This retreat will offer slightly different activity options to our locations in the north, but you can expect the same level of adventure.
Hosting a maximum of 10 guests, this luxury escape offers 5 unique and thoughtfully designed rooms – all equipped with ocean views, private bathrooms, and air conditioning.
