Unlimited Yoga Sessions

Strengthen Your Body & Revitalise Your Mind on Your Surf Holidays!

Yoga has swept surfers all over the world off their feet, with all professional surfers using it to improve their flexibility, core strength and surfing performance. So, if after an active day surfing and on the beach you feel like you could do with some stretching, relaxing and “me”-time, Yoga is a fantastic way to improve your flexibility and to strengthen your body.

Our enthusiastic and professional Yoga instructors in our Moliets Yoga & Surf Camp make their sessions fun and accessible to ‘Yogis’ of all levels. So, even if you cannot yet touch your toes when bending over, our instructors know just how to help you improve your surfing through Yoga. Join us for an inspiring sunset course and see the positive effects for yourself and for your body.

Moliets Surf & Yoga Camp Overview

Here’s What Our Moliets Yoga & Surf Camp looks like!

Our Moliets Surf & Yoga Camp is located in the picturesque town of Moliets-Plage on the southwest coast of France. Just north of Hossegor, Europe’s surfing capital, Moliets is close to the Basque Country and northern Spain.

Moliets is internationally known for its incredible waves and great summer vibes – the perfect formula for a fantastic and unforgettable surfing holiday. With white beaches, great waves,  hammock chilling in the sunshine and trips to Biarritz and San Sebastián, expect your surfing holidays with Star Surf Camps to be exciting!

Nested into a quieter and more secluded spot on the campsite, our Moliets Yoga & Surf camp is made up of our brand-new, luxurious, bohemian bell tents with raised, wooden beds and electricity, a large chill-out zone with our unique ‘Hammock Hotel’, a big Yoga platform and sunbathing deck.

Our surf camp also includes a large shaded seating area for eating and entertaining, a stylish tiki bar, an outdoor cinema area, surf equipment and storage tents and beautiful night-time lighting for you to end your surf camp days on a glamorous note.

Surf Camp Moliets – Day Trip Activities

Shake off the sand and salt! We’ve got some amazing trips planned for you…
 

We all love nothing more than the laid-back surfing lifestyle. The feeling of the sun kissing your wet skin after you’ve nailed your last wave of your surf session is simply priceless. But once or twice a week, we do fancy washing off the sand and salt to put on our glad rags and hit the road!

‘Tapas, Sangria & Party’

San Sebastián Day & Night Out

Just 20 kilometres south of the French border, along the crystal clear coast of the beautiful Bay of Biscay, lies the vibrant city of San Sebastián. The gorgeous harbour, lively city centre and grand Spanish plazas give the city a glamorous and sophisticated atmosphere by day, while uncountable busy tapas bars and numerous energetic night clubs make for its flirtatious and crazy vibe at night. Join Star Surf Camps on our fantastic day trip away from the surf to this city we’re sure you’ll be falling in love with!

Leaving our Moliets Surf Camp after your surf lessons, we start our San Sebastián day trip in the afternoon with cool sangrias, delicious tapas and a tour around the old part of town and its bars. Once in San Sebastián, you have enough free time to explore the city on your own, go shopping, stroll through the quaint, little streets or see the stunning cathedral before we make our way up gorgeous Monte Urgull.

Overlooking San Sebastián’s breathtaking bay, the top of this hill makes for the ultimate starting point to a perfect night out! With a drink in your hand and a big smile on your face, watch an incredible sunset and get ready to hit the bars, nightclubs and to party all night long! In other words, it’s as easy as this: SanSebastián’s Spanish flair and great summer vibes together with our awesome Star Surf Camps atmosphere make our trip here an absolute must-do and certainly an adventure not to miss out on!

‘Culture meets Coastline’

Biarritz Day Trip

Biarritz, without a doubt, is one of the most beautiful cities in Europe. That’s why locals often call the city “the Queen of the Basque country”. What sets Biarritz apart from the hundreds of other beautiful European coastal hot spots is that its beauty and charm are far from skin deep, as the city is steeped in rich culture and historical relevance with particular reference to the surfing world. It was actually on these very beaches that the first waves in Europe were surfed when a Californian filmmaker called for his surfboard to be shipped out all the way to France after seeing the beauty and the waves on offer. Since then this city has been on an even keel of surf and sophistication. Where else do you find a bond like casino on the beach serving up trendy cocktails as its patrons watch over the surfers and waves almost lapping up to the baccarat table?

The best thing about our Biarritz Day Trip is that there is so much to see and do, so much of this chic town to sample that will cost you next to nothing. We start our tour at the infamous lighthouse with panoramic views across the city and neighbouring beaches. Our walking tour will take you along the pristine coastline, across pedestrian bridges to tiny islands, among art installations and statues, through stained glass churches past our favourite ice cream parlours and will certainly end at a lively watering hole usually accompanied with live music. Et voila!
