Our boutique surf villa in Labenne Ocean, just a few minutes walk from the beach, is the perfect place to relax after a day of surfing. Each day our Yoga sessions will help us to prepare for and then stretch out after surfing, with Yoga classes held either at the beach or at the villa depending on our schedule.
