What is a SWEL Mission?

Our SWEL Missions are all inclusive four-day, three-night surf trips for our nation’s heroes with a focus on the mind, body, and soul. This is accomplished through yoga, wholesome family style meals, and, of course, surfing.

​

Each day provides opportunities for personal growth and decompression within the structure of a carefully crafted itinerary that is set in advance and focuses on the specific needs and dynamic of each group. Full participation is strongly encouraged.

​

Each participant’s airfare, lodging, and most meals are covered. SWEL strives to obtain the best accommodations possible to promote a relaxed community atmosphere. During surfing sessions, yoga practice, and downtime, participants are joined by local SWEL Ambassadors who are also veterans and first responders.

​

SWEL Missions are the ideal place for strengthening bonds, healing wounds, and celebrating service. Much like peer support, the missions offer a positive setting to discuss issues affecting our participants or merely an opportunity to escape. We do not offer therapy in a traditional sense; however, we are happy to refer out as needed.
