About this trip

Our Salty Sensations retreats are hosted by world-class professional surfers who do their very best to break down surf techniques and tips to help each surfer make strides in their own practice, while creating an atmosphere of celebratory inclusivity.

Kassia Meador, Leah Dawson,  Makala Smith and Andy Nieblas have lead over 15 retreats together, combining their lifetimes of surfing knowledge in a joyful coaching approach!


Our flagship San Clemente Surf Retreat is an outdoor camping experience that is focused on spending all day at the beach to develop and further your surfing skills.  With video feedback, immersive land lessons, healthy delicious food, a sound bath by Kassia, and constant laughter around the campfire, this retreat experience is like nothing else on the market.  


Surfing Level: Able to catch your own waves.  We can facilitate beginner surfers with the understanding that coaching sessions are in a group setting and you will be paired with surfers of a similar level with a designated coach.

Great retreat - definitely a five star experience - with great instruction by Leah and Kassia in the water and out! Food was phenomenal and the whole Salty Sensations team was amazing!

This trip exceeded every expectation I had going into it! There were so many moments of pure magic, and being guided through the surf by Melanie, Kassia, Leah, Candice, and Makayla was wonderful. They offered so much incredible knowledge and guidance, and gave so much incredible feedback on even the smallest changes that made a huge difference in my surfing. Whether surfing under rainbows, hiking, or eating one of Aine's fantastic meals, there was never a dull moment. I hope to go back again, and can't recommend going on this trip enough!

I LOVED THIS TRIP! I had a wonderful time, Ireland is magic. Kassia, Leah, Candice. Melanie and Makayla were the best hosts! I learned so many helpful tips about surfing and enjoyed so many great rides. The food was out of this world and our plans were so special. Everyday a new adventure to find waves, and more than enough to explore when ocean conditions were not ideal for surfing. 10/10; I'll certainly do another one!
