Willow Surf

One of our goals for this week is to elevate our surf skills to levels we didn’t know we were capable of. We want to make sure that the boards we're riding are actually suitable for us: WOMEN! That's why we partnered up with Willow.

  • WILLOW SURF - DESIGNED BY WOMEN FOR WOMEN

    Willow is women’s surfboard and surf lifestyle brand established and based in Byron Bay, Australia.

    The Willow team designed and built surfboards for all women surfers to enhance and express themselves in the ocean riding the waves.

    Willow boards are crafted specifically for the unique needs of women’s surfing. They are designed to increase stability, balance and flow throughout our models to help catch more waves effortlessly and ease of ride in all conditions.

  • A board for every step of your surf journey

  • Lovingly crafted in Byron Bay

    Willow surfboards are custom designed by the Willow surf and creative team then hand shaped and built by local Byron Bay surfboard builders with 50+ years experience. Experts in crafting unique surfboards accommodating women surfing of all levels to bring true magic to their boards.

The house

You will be staying at a beautiful two story house in Sandy with 2 bathrooms, 2 kitchens, a pool and plenty of space for you to chill after a day of surfing.

The Food

Holistic Nutrionist and friend of the brand, Elina from Bowls and Flows will be our retreat chef! She makes the most delicious, beautiful healthy food that you won't get enough of.

Her approach uses food to nurture both body and mind – aligning with nature and ayurvedic principles for holistic well-being.

The Waves

Arrawarra headland, the magic wave.

Imagine a wave so long and so mellow located between two beautiful breathtaking cliffs.

Crystal clear water, dolphins, sea turtles and even some whales if we're lucky!

The Arra wave is perfect for longboarders and mid-lengths wanting to work on their performance skills. A soft long point break going right, which offers a smooth long ride, this wave is the perfect wave to practise your bases, cross stepping, nose riding, and some curvy turns… the beach itself offers a beautiful quiet & chill atmosphere and serenity… if you don't believe in magic, wait ‘till you see this wave.
