Walk On Water

A place where created encounters Creator and sojourner finds community; WOW is an epic adventure combining surfing, nature, and worship for an experience unparalleled.

WOW is more than a vacation in paradise and actually goes beyond learning to surf. It’s a change of pace and perspective, an opportunity to rest and reset, and an invitation to start living life to the fullest.

What people are saying…

  • Leanna S.

    “I don’t think I could have fully anticipated all that was in store for me on this trip, but what I experienced exceeded every expectation I had. I never thought I would come away from a trip with so many amazing new friends and sisters in Christ! Thank you for making everything ever so special. I think I’ll be on cloud nine for a while!”

  • Jessy W.

    “Worship, community, surf, yoga, adventure, and food to fuel, the WOW experience truly has it all. I’m so thankful to God for the blessing that this week was to me. It was truly incredible to come alongside the staff and other ladies in learning & growing together; having met as strangers and leave as life long friends was something I am ever thankful for.”

  • Sheridan S.

    “There’s only one way I can describe the experience we had in Costa Rica: God’s hand was at work. I am so grateful for the way He used and moved the team at WOW to make things so incredible and truly memorable. Of all the trips I’ve taken in my life so far, this one will be hard to top!”

  • Ursula M.

    “I snuck away in November to eat, pray and surf with an amazing group of women at WOW. Words do not do this experience justice. We spent the week praying, surfing, adventuring, giving back, laughing, and loving. Now I have a new group of gals to call my sisters in Christ forever.”
