Baja Bliss Yoga + Surf Retreat

A yoga retreat with Rima Sophia is a soul nourishing, joyfully grounding experience that blends intentional movement, meaningful yoga education, and a seriously good time in a stunning, nature infused environment designed to help you reconnect to your strength, softness, and inner light.

Whether you’re a beginner eager to catch your first wave or an intermediate surfer looking to refine your skills, this Baja yoga and surf retreat offers a beautiful balance of personalized coaching and mindful restoration. Surfing is optional but highly encouraged. Private lessons and board rentals are available and arranged for you.

Not surfing? Perfect. Our twice daily yoga practices will keep you moving and feeling sublime in both mind and body. Expect a challenging yet accessible morning flow, followed by an evening session designed to calm, restore, and integrate the day.

The Retreat Venue

Where the desert meets the ocean, the boutique wellness sanctuary sits perched on a hillside overlooking the Pacific. Just steps from the beach, with Cerritos, Pescadero, and San Pedrito nearby, and minutes from the vibrant Pueblo Mágico of Todos Santos, the setting blends coastal beauty with desert serenity.

The property features beautifully appointed rooms, an intentionally designed 800 square foot yoga studio with floor to ceiling glass and sweeping 180 degree ocean views, a saltwater pool, hot tub, and tranquil lounging areas that invite you to fully exhale.

The Accommodations

Each suite feels like a home away from home, blending modern comfort with Baja’s natural beauty. Crisp linens, locally inspired décor, ocean or pool views, and thoughtful private touches create a sanctuary for rest and restoration after full days of surf, yoga, sunshine, and connection.

The Surf

Playa Los Cerritos is one of Baja’s most beloved surf beaches, known for its sandy bottom and consistent year round waves. It is ideal for all levels, from first timers catching their inaugural wave to seasoned surfers seeking long, playful rides. Warm waters and welcoming energy make it the perfect place to experience the joy of surfing. Topia Retreat works with a top notch surf school that will provide lessons or just board rentals and transportation to Cerritos Beach.

The Yoga

Rima brings a lifetime of studying the human body through dance, yoga, meditation, and a parallel career in physical therapy. Teaching since 2003, she blends and borrows from multiple movement disciplines and yoga traditions to create classes that are intelligent, deeply satisfying, and accessible to a wide range of practitioners.

Expect smart sequencing, strength and mobility work, clear instruction, and moments of levity, because growth and joy are not mutually exclusive.

The morning practice will be a 90 minutes vinyasa style class including breath work and meditation. The evening yoga session is likely to be a mix of strength training and restorative yoga along with the possibility of a workshop style class.

The Food

Food is always a highlight. At Topia Retreat, meals are both nourishment and celebration. Chef prepared dishes highlight locally sourced, farm fresh ingredients and the vibrant flavors of Baja’s land and sea. Expect colorful plant forward offerings, sustainably caught seafood, wood fired creations, and meals that bring everyone together around the table.

Dining here is not just eating, it is part of the experience.

Wellness and Wholeness

Wellness is woven into every detail of the retreat. Alongside daily yoga and the healing rhythm of the ocean, guests may add massage for an indulgent reset. Between the saltwater pool, hot tub, and quiet spaces for reflection, the environment supports full spectrum renewal of body, mind, and spirit.

You will leave feeling restored, balanced, connected, and deeply alive.
