Retreat Frequently Asked Questions

Here are the most commonly asked questions regarding our retreat so far.

We’ll endeavour to update this page regularly and please email us with your questions!

I’m flying in to Sydney International Airport, will I need to hire a car?

If you would like to explore the gorgeous coastline of NSW, and have the freedom to explore, by all means hire a car to travel to Mossy Point.

The alternative is to catch a domestic flight to Moruya Airport and, if you don’t want to hire a car, we can meet you on arrival and transport you to Oaks Ranch. We have a van to drive you to and from the beach.

I surf but my partner doesn’t, can I still bring them along?

YES! This retreat is for everyone.

What equipment should I pack?

Pack your favourite board/s, foil/sup/body surfing gear, legropes, wetsuits, yoga mat/bolster/block…all the things that will allow you to have a really good time :)

Can I drink alcohol and coffee on retreat?

You can…we love coffee. You’ll have your own Nespresso machine in your room and the bar offers great coffee too. There are also a couple of cafes on the way to the beach that are awesome!

Oaks Ranch has a bar and you’re welcome to enjoy sunset Happy Hour by the pool and wine with dinner. We’ll set you up with your own bar tab, please note alcohol is not included in your package.

I’m a beginner surfer and I’ve never done yoga

We invite surfers and yogi’s of all levels to join us on this retreat. It’s an opportunity to surf with Tom and have a coaching session at the same time!

Each yoga practice will have an offering to do less or do more. You’ll learn about yoga, pranayama, energetics and…immerse into a delicious practice.

Do I need to attend every activity??

We understand the need for down time and the need to have your own space! Everything is optional. You are welcome to spend time on your own and relax. Oaks Ranch has an awesome magnesium pool, a library and a golf course! Your room is luxuriously elegant and comfortable and you may wish to take a soak in a bath whilst sipping on tea.

What are the waves like down at Mossy Point?

There are waves for all levels….river mouths with friendly, easy waves perfect for beginner to intermediate surfers. There are reef breaks and beach breaks for the more advanced surfer. Ideal waves for SUP, foiling, body boarding and body surfing.

I’ve never meditated before and have no idea what to do.

Perfect. Tom is an experienced Vedic and Sattva meditation teacher and he has maintained a daily practice for decades. Tom will guide and support you through a simple meditation practice step by step.

Do I need to bring my own golf clubs?

Yes, bring your own clubs. The golf course is beautiful and there are golf buggies available for you.

Can I have a private one:one yoga class?
