Bailando con las Olas
A Longboard Surf Retreat for Women
November 8 – 15, 2026
THE RETREAT
Seven days of surf, sea & soul
Bailando con las Olas — 'dancing with the waves' — is an intimate retreat designed for women who already know the ocean and want to go deeper. Not just as surfers, but as people.
For one week we'll share the water in Sayulita, one of Mexico's most spirited surf towns, learning from the waves, from each other, and from ourselves.
Small group. Real connections. Time in the water every day.

YOUR HOST
Meet Maria
Maria is a surfer, community builder, and the heart behind Bailando con las Olas. What started as a dream to share the ocean with other women has grown into something deeply personal — a space where surf, soul, and sisterhood meet.
With years of experience in the water and a gift for bringing people together, Maria creates an environment where everyone feels seen, supported, and free to be exactly who they are — on the board and off it.
This retreat is her invitation to you: come as you are, leave transformed.
