Umzumbe Surf Yoga Retreat

Umzumbe Surf Camp was founded in 2013 offering a bit of the SA Surfari experience. Seeing that there wasn't a prevalent surf school in the area, Ali and Rich brought their many years of experience in surf instruction to the South Coast. With almost 20 years of combined surf experience and 8 years of experience in teaching surf camps to kids and adults, it was only a matter of time before Umzumbe Surf Camp was born.

Built in 1916, by the Great Grandfather of Rich Walters, the simple beach house was designed as a get-away cottage for family holidays by the sea. The original building still stands at over 100 years old. Some of the wood furniture was handcrafted in the 1920's by the Walters men while on holiday and still stands strong in the house.

The Surf Camp Property has 2 luxury yet rustic bungalows with kitchens, baths and outside showers.

The property has seen generations of fun in the sun, beach holidays, parties and honeymoons. There could be nothing better than to share that with more friends and family for many years to come.

STAY

The house has 5 bedrooms, an open plan common area with lounge, dining area and kitchen, all with a sea view. There are 2 toilets and 2 baths inside the house that are shared amongst all. There are two airy outdoor showers to rinse off in, with hot water taps and a cool sea breeze. The outdoor lounge is very welcoming, hugged with couches and pillows for leisurely reading or afternoon siestas. The outside deck and patio was designed for nothing but chilling in the sunbathing lounge chairs, picnic tables, hammocks or swings under the fig tree.

SURF

We surf to have fun, we surf to connect with the ocean. 

We learn how to navigate the waves, developing the skills  needed to enjoy the surf and to be safe. 

From paddling, to wave selection, reading the conditions  and having the right technique to ride the waves. 

We believe surfing is a fun and enjoyable activity for  everyone. 

We provide all equipment needed and choose the best  day  to suit the conditions.
