SURF YOUR LiFE
This retreat invites you to explore how you meet life through movement, presence, and lived experience. It is designed for people with some experience in personal growth practices who are curious to engage the body more directly. Surfing is used as an embodied coaching practice: in the ocean, patterns around control, trust, limitation, and persistence become visible in real time.
The program created for anyone seeking to reconnect with their creativity, explore new forms of self-expression, and nurture their inner world. This retreat provides a safe and inspiring space to let go of daily stresses, awaken your artistic spirit and find balance through mindful practices.
5 Days of Creative Exploration: A transformative journey for self-expression and inner discovery
The program is particularly beneficial for anyone looking to do a digital detox, clear their thoughts, calm their mind, or slow down. It will help bring balance to life, whether it's achieving a better work-life balance or harmonizing the inner and outer worlds.

OUR STORY
Created by the Antoni Family — dreamers, travellers and ocean lovers.
People Ocean was born from our family’s journey around the world — chasing waves, music, art, and human connection. We’ve seen that no matter where we go, people share one simple wish: to live creative, happy, and healthy. So we built a place that makes that possible — naturally. A home by the ocean where ideas flow easily, where retreats, art, yoga, and silence all meet. Here we host our own programs — and open the doors for others to bring their visions to life, effortlessly.
Come share your light, your art, your presence. Together, we grow. Together, we are People Ocean 🌊
In a few words: I’m completely delighted and amazed. Now, let me elaborate. I thought staying silent would be unbearably hard, but it turned out to be the easiest and most pleasant part. The environment around you is designed to make this experience as comfortable as possible. The program is structured to shift all your attention to your body, which brings an incredible sense of mental relaxation. The practices are very diverse, all aimed at deepening the connection with your body.

Thank you to everyone—I’m grateful to all of you because I truly experienced the full spectrum of emotions, from soaring to the heavens to sinking into the depths of my inner state. I was in a very tangled place before the retreat, and I really needed to sort things out within myself. Now, I’m leaving the retreat with important insights. I’ve spent so much time searching for myself—different teachers, gurus, trainings, and trips. But it was during this retreat that I realized all the answers are already here—they’re within us.

During one of the practices, with my eyes blindfolded, I became aware of how many sounds surround us. Now, I see our ability to see, hear, and speak in a completely different light. I used to take it all for granted. After the retreat, I became acutely aware of how much time my phone takes from me, and I feel the need to share this realization with others.

I didn’t have any specific expectations or requests—I just wanted to try being in silence with myself and my thoughts. It turns out staying silent for a few days isn’t that hard, but keeping your mind from wandering—from memories to future plans—is the real challenge. Afterward, I felt a clarity in my mind, as though it had been cleansed. I felt refreshed, rested, and free. A huge thank you to the retreat team for the excellent level of organization, support, and care.
I didn’t fully understand when I went to the retreat what exactly I wanted to find and realize for myself. For me, it was more of a trial, a search for something, and at some point, I found answers for myself. I was afraid that I might just waste my time, but that definitely didn’t happen. What happened over these days has never happened to me before, not even close. I wish the retreat lasted longer because it wasn’t enough for me.
I feel very good, in true inner silence. I don’t want to leave because I felt very comfortable; the vegetarian cuisine was excellent, and the program was thoughtful and sensory. I realized a lot, felt nature, the breeze, the sound of water, and I started writing poetry again. Silence is a support for life for me; you just have to step into it to understand what this feeling provides.

I feel amazing, but it was difficult at first; I wanted to talk, but then something switched, and a deep silence settled within me. On the fourth day of the retreat, I experienced a sense of harmony with myself. The space we lived in was simply magnificent: wrapped in love, warmth, and care for each individual. I will wish all my acquaintances to go through this retreat; it will help you connect with yourself.

I rested. For the first time in a long while, I was able to sleep without looking at my phone. I fell asleep very early compared to my usual life. I had plenty of time for reflection and came up with many new ideas, both personal and related to global business. I would really like to repeat this experience.
