Intermedio surf retreat: the week the points open up

What an intermediate week focuses on

• 1

  Point break sessions when the swell and tide allow, with a clear plan per la paddle-out and the exit.

• 2

  Line choice and speed generation rather than more pop-up repetitions.

• 3

  Tavola volume dropped deliberately, so the wave count falls before the wave quality rises.

• 4

  Daily previsioni reading con la coach, until you can call the session yourself.

• 5

  Lineup etiquette in a crowded local pack — priority, positioning and when not to go.

• 6

  Video dalla cliff at Anchor or Devil's Rock, reviewed the same afternoon.

How a day actually runs

1. 07:15

   Previsioni call over coffee. The coach says which spot and why — you follow the reasoning, not just the instruction.

2. 08:00

   First session, before the wind fills in. Two hours in the water is the norm, not four.

3. 11:30

   Breakfast, then the flat part of the day: sleep, read, stretch, or walk into the village.

4. 16:00

   Second session or the video review, depending on what the afternoon wind did.

5. 19:30

   Dinner together. Tomorrow's plan is set here, on tomorrow's previsioni.
