Join us for an amazing retreat full of Yoga and bliss under the Greek sun on one of the most beautiful islands in Greece.
THE RETREAT
Practice yoga at an exclusive sanctuary that invites you to experience the most relaxing and enjoyable vacation of your life, what more could anyone dream of!
Tiny and secluded, Koufonisia island is the best place for absolute relaxation in Greece. Geographically located south of Naxos, in the center of the Cyclades, Koufonisia is actually a pair of islands, Ano and Kato Koufonisi. Only Ano Koufonissi is inhabited and has a main port village where taverns and shops are found. All beaches in Koufonisia have exotic turquoise waters and some are used by naturists, like Pori and Fanos. Koufonisia's beaches are amazingly quiet and secluded.
The retreat starts on Saturday, June 30 around 3pm. After getting accommodated, we will meet for a grounding practice and orientation, followed by an afternoon swim and dinner at Koufonissi villas’ main dining room.
The days that follow will spread between yoga practice (each morning and afternoon), walks, visits to the town and beaches, swimming and enjoying the amazing crystal waters, white soft sand and bright sun on our bodies.
You can enjoy optional massage treatments from an experienced therapist. Highly recommended.
Optional bicycle rental for rides around the island.
There will be an optional day trip by fishing boat to Kato Koufonisi to explore, hike and swim.
Weather permitting there might be an optional day cruise to the neighboring little islands that make up the small Cyclades https://goo.gl/uUNeme
