Reset and Restore Day Retreat

The yoga and surfing day retreat was such good fun. 2 hrs of yoga, a gorgeous lunch and then 2 hours of surfing in the afternoon at Belhaven Beach. Group size was only 8 and we therefore got lots of attention from the three instructors. Despite it being 4 degrees outside we kept warm in the thick wetsuits. The base is amazing with a big fire and lots of hot drinks and treats. We were really well looked after. Would thoroughly recommend.

Myself and two friends really enjoyed our Yoga and Surf retreat in November 2023. The full day event started with two hours of yoga, followed by lunch and an afternoon spent surfing. The venue is a lovely converted stables which makes a great setting for the yoga, which both relaxed and prepared us for the afternoon. A log burning stove and a few extra layers kept us comfortable during yoga and lunch on an otherwise cold and wet day, and the hot showers were very welcome when getting changed after surfing!

I really liked the emphasis during the surfing on focusing on what you want to get out of the experience, which allowed me to enjoy the attempts at getting on the board as much as the successes. The food was good, there was always the opportunity to get a hot drink, and we were well-catered for as vegans. Jacob was an excellent host and ensured we didn’t want for anything! Highly recommend!

Had an amazing first ever surf lesson with ocean vertical. The guys were brilliant. From arrival to getting in the water. Felt really at ease even though I had never done this before. Hours of fun. One of the best things I have done. Ritchie was great and he nearly even got me on my feet.
I will be back for more.

We had a great family surfing experience at Belhaven Bay!

We met up with Ocean Vertical at their amazing building and got kitted up, and headed over to the beach. The instructors were great and because we were in a small group we all [just!] managed to stand up!

We will definitely be back – and thanks for the hot chocolate!

We had a great time with Ocean Vertical surfing at Belhaven Bay. It was our first surfing experience and the instructor was great and super helpful. they provided us with all the equipment and the hot chocolate for my kids back at their beautiful old base. 5 stars!

OV recently hosted a corporate away day for over 45 of our employees, we done a mixture of yoga, archery & arch throwing, cycling along the coast and it was just brilliant! We also enjoyed lots of great food on the day, everyone said how delicious everything was. Overall, the day was brilliant and I couldn’t recommend the OV team and facilities more.
