Serene Waters Adventure Therapy provides saltwater-based healing experiences for individuals in recovery from substance use disorders and mental health challenges. Through therapeutic surfing, ocean-focused group activities, and mindfulness, we help people reconnect with their bodies, build resilience, and find peace in the power of the sea.
We offer group sessions and private surf experiences, all designed to support recovery, mindfulness, grounding, and personal growth. Our approach blends adventure therapy with the natural rhythm of the ocean to promote healing, empowerment, and connection.
Based in Orange County, California, our mission is simple: to harness the ocean’s transformative energy to support recovery and mental wellness—one wave at a time.
