Cape Point Surf Yoga Camp | South Africa
@travelwithcarlo
Whether you are a total beginner, an intermediate, or a barrel riding ripper they have you covered! They run a small & intimate operation dedicated to getting you to the next level in your surfing. No more than 6 guests at one time stay here so they can truly focus on attaining the most progress out of the experience. Three different accommodation options are on offer in the surf yoga house. This keeps the groups relatively small so that they can provide the best quality experience for you. Along with these rooms is a kitchen where they create some awesome meals for youself. The outside veranda is the chill out jacuzzi zone where you sip on some cold ones after your yoga or surf sessions.
