# Del Mar Adventures ## Posts - [Spiritual Retreat Peru: The Journey that Changed Our Lives](https://delmaradventures.com/spiritual-retreat-peru-the-journey/): How our Spiritual Retreat in Perú Came to Life  Deciding The idea for our Spiritual Retreat Peru was born when my Peruvian friend, Milagros, came to visit me just as I was in the early stages of giving birth to Del Mar Adventures – the project meant to redirect so many years dedicated to creating surf experiences for women to creating life-changing journeys.  I was considering destinations and had even been invited on a scouting trip to Chile already when Milagros came in with a categorical “No. Let’s go to Peru. You’ll love it”.  I didn’t want to become one […] - [Returning to the Ocean: Surfing Again at 47](https://delmaradventures.com/surfing-at-47-returning-to-ocean/): Over six years away from surfing feels like a lifetime. Surfing at 47 and coming back to the ocean has felt, in many ways, like learning all over again. My body is different. My hormones are different. In fact, my mind plays tricks on me some days, whispering doubts, old expectations, and comparisons I no longer want to carry. And yet… returning to the water has been one of the most beautiful experiences of my life. This time, it’s different. There is no pressure. First, there is no pressure to prove anything. Furthermore, I feel no need to surf big […] - [365 Days of Full Sobriety: How One Year Transformed My Life and Revived My Purpose](https://delmaradventures.com/sobriety-journey-365-days-transformation/): One year ago, I made a decision that quietly transformed everything: my mind, my heart, my relationships, and the way I move through the world. What started as a personal experiment became the most powerful act of self-love I have ever committed to. Today, after 365 days of full sobriety,  I finally feel ready to share my story openly. Not because I owe anyone an explanation, but because I want to let you in on the why behind this decision, and because those who love me deserve to hear the why. And because many times, people ask about my choices, my path, and my […] - [Wellness Travel Experiences: Peru, Chile & Costa Rica Retreats](https://delmaradventures.com/wellness-travel-peru-chile-costa-rica/): Gratitude-Filled Journeys: Reflections from María del Mar Lately, I’ve been feeling deeply overwhelmed with gratitude. The past two months have been an extraordinary journey full of travel, family time, and precious moments that nourished my heart and spirit. Exploring Peru: A Journey to the Sacred Valley I traveled to Peru with Erika and Milagros to scout locations for our Sacred Gathering in October 2026 in the Sacred Valley. What a trip! It revealed so much to me—clear insights, inspiration, and moments that fed my spirit. During that week, we met extraordinary people and learned about Andean culture. We also gave […] - [Wings of Change: My Life Inspired by the Dragonfly](https://delmaradventures.com/wings-of-change-dragonfly/): Embracing Growth, Freedom, and New Horizons They say the dragonfly represents wisdom, adaptability, and the ability to move through life with grace. It also symbolizes freedom, evolution, and change. These qualities have shaped both my personal and professional journey. As I reflect today, I realize how closely my story aligns with this inspiring symbol. I am María del Mar, proudly Costa Rican, with family roots that shaped my childhood between San José and the countryside. Life has also given me a loving husband and four wonderful children: Sofía, Fisher, Alana, and Malin. Together, they form a team that inspires me […] - [Del Mar Experiences in Costa Rica: More Than a Destination, A Return to Self](https://delmaradventures.com/del-mar-experiences-launch/): Experiences crafted with intention—to move, to breathe, to remember who you are—in body, mind, and soul.

It all began with women-only surf camps—grounding days of yoga, hiking, bonfires, and connection among ladies who often left as transformed versions of themselves. “It was my way of reconnecting with myself and with other women.” But María del Mar felt something deeper was asking […] ## Pages - [Nosara Surf & Play Experience in Costa Rica](https://delmaradventures.com/experiences/nosara-surf-and-play/): DISCOVER NOSARA SURF & PLAY Your tailor-made Nosara adventure — surf, wellness, movement, nature, culture & pura vida experiences.
