AHINI WEEK: This summer, we are inviting women from around the world to join us for a special week at Château Basque together with Gabriella and Marie.

A week shaped around surfing, movement, mindfulness, community and slow summer living set between the Atlantic Ocean and the green Basque mountains.

Expect playful surf sessions, yoga, breathwork, long dinners in the château gardens, road trips along the coast and warm summer evenings shared with beautiful humans from around the world.

Whether you are completely new to surfing or already spend a lot of time in the water, this week is about enjoying the process, building confidence in the ocean and simply having fun together.

Gabriella, currently based in Costa Rica, will guide the surf sessions throughout the week, while Marie, founder of Raw Vision Studio in Copenhagen, will host daily yoga, movement and mindfulness practices designed to energise, ground and reconnect.

More than anything, WAHINI WEEK is about creating space to slow down, move, surf, laugh, recharge and share an unforgettable week together at Château Basque.

Surf. Sisterhood. Slow living.

July 10th–17th, 2026.

Limited spots available.
