Yoga retreats 2022 in Greece & greek islands
A new traveling trend has emerged in recent years. If you go on an alternative
yoga retreat vacation, you will discover how exercise meets exploration,
relaxation, social connectivity and a deeper connection to the practice of
yoga. This is a trend that has so grown big around the globe, that organizers
have decided to launch several interesting yoga retreats in Greece, combining
the trend with the unbeatable sea and sun of the islands.
What is a yoga retreat
Yoga holidays have become a popular choice amongst Greek and foreign
tourists. Retreat packages usually include accommodation, yoga classes and
sometimes different activities such as climbing, sup, or sailing. You will
reach the destination of your choice with boat tickets from
Let’s Ferry.
Make your reservation fast and easy, in just a few clicks.
What I need to know about yoga holidays
They are perfect for all ages and all levels of experience. There are
classes for beginners and advanced ones for long-time yogis. Newbies become
familiar with the concept of yoga and get into the process of getting to know
their body better, through simple and basic exercises. You can also include
nutrition, transportation and any other available facilities to your yoga
package. The teachers you will meet at a yoga retreat are quite experienced.
You can check out their CVs before choosing who is best suited to your
needs and style. The purpose of yoga retreats is to make all participants feel
comfortable, and that’s exactly what yoga teachers are here to take care
of.

What is the best time for a yoga retreat in Greece?
Most retreats in Greece take place during the spring and the summer,
and mainly on the islands. The sun, the beaches, the fantastic cuisine and the
fair weather are factors that make every yoga vacation a unique experience.
However, yoga retreats are also organized during the autumn and the winter,
even in mountain destinations where activities such as hiking and climbing are
also included in the retreat.
What are the types of yoga I can choose from
To make your experience even better, this is a list of different types
of yoga retreats:
Couples yoga retreat: Yoga holidays together with your other half. Exercises exclusively created
for couples to get more intimate physically and mentally.
Adventure yoga retreat: Combine yoga with a slice of adventure and outdoor activities. Climbing in
Kalymnos, horseback riding in Skyros and hiking in Amorgos, are just some of
the most sought-after experiences.
