Pioneering the trajectory of surfing and stand-up paddling in India, the Mantra Surf Club has a rich legacy. They were the first to establish a dedicated surf camp in the country, setting the stage for a thriving surf culture on the Indian coast. Located in Mulki, near Mangalore, Udupi, and Manipal, the club offers a haven for those seeking both the thrill of water sports and the serenity of yoga.
Whether you're a complete beginner or a seasoned surfer, Mantra Surf Club caters to all experience levels. Their comprehensive offerings include surf lessons, SUP adventures, and revitalizing yoga sessions. But their focus extends beyond just the activities themselves. The club emphasizes a holistic approach, ensuring a well-rounded experience that nourishes both the body and the soul.
Conquering your first wave under the warm Indian sun, followed by a peaceful yoga meditation session to find inner peace. Or, perhaps, a serene backwater riverboat tour allows you to reconnect with nature's tranquility. Mantra Surf Club caters to these diverse desires, offering a range of experiences that cater to your individual needs.
They're also deeply invested in fostering the growth of surfing in India. The National Surfing Championship is going to be happening right at their doorstep, on Sasihithlu Beach, from May 31 to June 2. This action-packed three-day event promises to showcase some of the best surfing talent in the country.
The club's dedication extends beyond national competitions. In March, they enthusiastically celebrated the Indian Paddle Festival, which offered Indian athletes a chance to compete against the world's best on their home turf. The spirit of competition was fierce, but more importantly, it was proof to India's growing prowess in the world of stand-up paddling. While acknowledging the journey ahead, Mantra Surf Club also celebrates the significant progress made by Indian athletes on the international stage.
Mantra Surf Club is more than just a surf camp — it's a community, a philosophy, and a gateway to a deeper connection with yourself and the ocean.
