Discover the story of Mantra Surf Club and the growth of surfing in India.
Founded in 2004, Mantra Surf Club started as India’s first surf camp on the quiet west coast of Karnataka, in Mulki—close to Mangalore, Udupi, and Manipal. What began as a small experiment has grown into a trusted space for surfing, water sports, and mindful living by the ocean.
At Mantra, you can learn surfing, stand-up paddling, and kayaking, or slow down with yoga and time in nature. We offer a balanced experience—time in the water, time to rest, and time to reconnect. Our campus includes clean and comfortable rooms, high-speed Wi-Fi, home-cooked vegetarian meals, and quality equipment to support your stay.
Our programs are run by a passionate and experienced team who genuinely care about teaching and sharing the ocean safely. Mantra is built on simple values—community, sustainability, and respect for the sea. Any surplus from our activities goes into maintaining the surf ashram and supporting the work of the Surfing Swami Foundation.
At Mantra Surf Club, surfing is more than an activity—it’s a way of life shaped by nature, people, and purpose.
