About Ocean Bay Recovery
Ocean Bay Recovery integrates ocean, beach and other nature-based experiences into treatment, helping clients reconnect with the part of themselves that knew how to have fun before addiction overcame them. Their setting offers access to beaches, hiking trails, rivers and nature reserves connected to the pristine Indian Ocean coastline of Greater St Francis Bay. Nature and ocean therapy form part of their daily programme, with daily morning trips to the beach and longer excursions into nature at least twice weekly.
Ocean Bay Recovery combines the American Society of Addiction Medicine (ASAM) Model and the 12-Step Minnesota Model to provide evidence-based treatment that is both individualised and community-driven. Their personalised treatment plans integrate medical, psychological, and social factors, allowing clients to address addiction and co-occurring mental health issues in one-on-one therapy sessions. At the same time, the structured 12-Step framework fosters a supportive peer community, reinforcing ongoing accountability, self-reflection, and sustainable long-term recovery.
Ocean Bay Recovery offers a private, serene retreat just 100 metres from the beach and the scenic Two Harbours Hiking Trail, providing a peaceful setting for healing in nature. Their family homelike facility features private or shared en-suite bedrooms designed for comfort, a spacious open-plan kitchen, and inviting communal areas, including a swimming pool deck, entertainment lapa with pool, darts and table tennis, a gym and BBQ. Clients can relax on the Zen viewing deck overlooking the Indian Ocean.
Evidence-Based Context: According to SAMHSA's National Survey on Drug Use and Health (2023), approximately 48.7 million Americans aged 12 or older had a substance use disorder in the past year. The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) emphasizes that treatment programs combining behavioral therapy with medication-assisted approaches show the highest rates of sustained recovery. Facilities like Ocean Bay Recovery provide structured pathways to evidence-based care. Sources: SAMHSA NSDUH 2023, NIDA Principles of Drug Addiction Treatment (4th Ed.)

Understanding Your Treatment Options
Choosing the right treatment facility is one of the most important decisions in the recovery journey. Research published by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) shows that treatment duration, therapeutic approach, and aftercare planning are the three strongest predictors of long-term sobriety.
Ocean Bay Recovery offers 2 distinct levels of care, allowing patients to step through treatment intensities as they progress. This continuum-of-care model — moving from higher to lower intensity — is recommended by SAMHSA as the gold standard for addiction treatment.
The facility utilizes 9 evidence-based therapeutic modalities. According to NIDA research, combination therapy approaches that integrate behavioral interventions (such as 1-on-1 Counseling and Online Therapy) with holistic support show significantly improved outcomes compared to single-modality programs.
