    A typical day at Karma Surf Retreat:

    The day starts at 8h with a gentle morning yoga class for you to wake up and to salutate the sun. You will generate even more energy during the following delicious health organic breakfast at 9h.

    After breakfast, around 10h, you will be picked up and brought to our partner SUP school in Cascais, where you will enjoy your SUP lesson. Upon returning home around 14h, there will be some time to enjoy your healthy vegetarian lunch and chill out a bit. If you want you can of course stay at the beach seeking the soothing sunlight. Alternatively you enjoy the pool and beautiful garden of the secluded villa and read a book or socialize with other guests. Others go for other activities or some quick sightseeing. You are on holiday – feel free to do whatever you want.

    In the afternoon at 16/17h there will be a second Yoga session also with some stretching elements in order to soften the effects of the unknown exercise of the stand up paddle boarding. You will feel it in the arms, shoulders and back, but also it the upper legs and butt area.

    In the evening there is lots of time to relax, prepare a nice meal and dine on the terrace overlooking the whole Cascais landscape and the ocean, or go out for dinner (we can provide personal recommendations). Read a book by the fireplace or in the garden. After an action-loaded day like this you will probably fall asleep early, well and deep for a rejuvenating sleep.
