After a truly unforgettable experience last October in Tarifa, Spain, Lauren, Founder of We Love Lucid and Matt Pink @betterlife guy have decided to do it all over again this year. Join us and a bunch of other sober and sober curious travellers for the perfect hangover-free holiday in Spain’s hottest boho surfer spot. You can check out photos from our last trip here.

Matt hit the social media sobersphere with a bang back in January 2021. Since then, he has gone on to launch a best-selling book, “Better Me, Better You", he has run multiple Sober Masterclass workshops and has hosted some of London’s biggest sober events. Matt is nearly three years sober and plans to dedicate the rest of his life to helping as many people as possible break free from the trap of alcohol.

After years of boozing and partying, Lauren created We Love Lucid alcohol-free travel experiences to connect other sober and sober curious travellers while proving that you don’t need alcohol to have an epic time on your holidays. As well as having a passion for off-the-beaten-track travel and adventure, Lauren speaks four languages and is currently writing a book about her travel escapades before and after quitting booze.

Hotel Check-in with an AF Champagne Reception

We’ll be staying in the funky boutique hotel Misiana located in the old town of Tarifa. We love this place because of its comfy rooms and artistic vibe. Each person will have their own individual room with en-suite.

What better way to kick off our holiday than with some alcohol-free champers in the beautiful hotel terrace. Morning yoga and sea dips anyone? Keep reading!

Morning Yoga and Sea Dips

Each morning, we’ll alternate an invigorating yoga session by the beach with an optional sea dip in Tarifa’s refreshing salty goodness. Personally, we can’t think of a better way to start the day! Don’t worry if you’re a complete yoga newbie. Most people have very little experience.

Hike with views of Africa

Did you know that you can see Morocco clearly from Tarifa? It’s one of the reasons we love this place! We’ll head off for an invigorating two-hour guided hike with some of the best views in southern Spain. It’s the perfect chance to learn about your surroundings and get to know your fellow travellers.

Tapas cooking experience

Let’s tantalise those taste buds Spanish style with an authentic tapas cooking experience. We’ll learn to make five typical dishes including some of the favorites, gazpacho, croquettes, patatas bravas and crispy fried squid. Vegans and veggies are welcome.

Watersport

Let’s head for the beach for some feel-good vibes as we make some unforgettable memories and have a total blast. Depending on the weather that day, we’ll try some paddle boarding or windsurfing. Last year the gang absolutely loved our windsurfing session and for some, it was the highlight of the trip! No experience? No problem. It’s all a bit of lighthearted fun and a chance to learn something new.

Alcohol-free drinks tasting

We’re super stoked to be serving up some of the best AF tipples in town this October. Let’s get the party started with some mouth-watering Noughty at our AF fizz reception on day one. We’ll also be tasting some zesty Caleño AF mocktails at sundown on our last night in Tarifa. Read on to find out more!

Beach club dinner with sunset views

We’ll go out with a bang on our last night at one of Tarifa’s hottest beach bars, for some mouthwatering eats. We’ll watch the sun go down as we soak up the chilled vibes and reminisce about the good times we’ve had.

Farewell

We’ll say our goodbyes as we check out of our hotel and head back to Gibraltar airport. We hope it’s not the last time we see you!

Each person has their own room with en-suite.

We’re expecting fairly good weather at this time of year in Tarifa. Temperatures can range from 22 to 27 degrees Celcius. We do suggest that you bring some layers for evenings as it can get a little chilly and don’t forget sunscreen!

All travellers should book their own flight to Gibraltar airport. A taxibus will pick us up at the airport at 1.30 pm. Tarifa is approximately a 40-minute journey from Gibraltar. You also have the option of arriving a day early and checking out Gibraltar! Transport to Gibraltar airport on Sunday is also included. We aim to arrive at Gibraltar airport on Sunday by 12pm.

Meals that are included in the price are breakfast, the tapas cooking experience and two evening meals. All organised foodie activities are vegetarian and vegan-friendly. There will also be various options in the restaurants and cafes that we eat out in. Let us know if you have any other dietary requirements.
