Come and relax on our 7 night yoga holiday in Santorini. Stay at a stunning villa with views looking out to the Aegean Sea below. An outdoor pool with space to relax in the sun or shade. Explore hiking the infamous hillside villages of Oia and Thira, try some local wines, enjoy a day sailing around the Caldera and don't forget those breathtaking sunsets. And yoga...of course!
Join us on our sunshine yoga holiday in Santorini. The wonderful heart-warming people of Greece, the food, and the stunning scenery make it a very special location to retreat to. There really is nothing else quite like it than our 7 nights retreat in Santorini.
The days are yours on our summer yoga retreat to do as you please. Our venue for 2024 is a private villa with amazing 180 degree views of the Aegean Sea and a 20-minute walk into Thira. There is an outdoor pool with wonderful views to relax and read a good book. Or you can walk into Thira where there are many cobbled little mews with shops, cafes and stunning views of the Caldera, relax by taking in the sights here. In Oia you can do the same, both are white-washed villages stacked on the volcanic hillside facing the Caldera that is infamous.
Head into Thira or Oia for one of the evening meals out to experience the beauty of the Caldera. Also included is a 8km pilgrimage walk between Oia and Thira, culminating at sunset at Skaros Rock for sunset meditation and spectacular views. Enjoy optional wine-tasting of local Santorini wines amongst the vines at sunset.
On your yoga holiday to Greece, we highly recommend a day sailing around the Caldera on a yacht (not included in the price) and this can be done privately or in a group booking with others to make things more affordable. For the more adventurous and to enjoy complete freedom, you can decide to hire a quad bike, scooter or car and take a drive around the Island and visit the volcanic black sandy beaches and historic sites. It’s your yoga holiday to Santorini, so be as active or relaxed as you like.
We bring our own chef and include all breakfasts, 5 evening meals and 3 lunches, drinking water with meals, plus of course, twice daily yoga either in our indoor yoga shala or outside to enjoy the views.
Santorini is an expensive Island, and the shops have some lovely things that might tempt you. For the two evening meals out there is a choice of expensive and more affordable options depending on your budget.

Sustainability
We are working towards reducing our carbon footprint, and here are some ways we, as a company, are doing this.
We are a 88% vegan company, 10% vegetarian and 2% fish or meat (only when staying in boutique hotels that offer these options). This makes up a huge percentage of carbon emissions that we avoid so easily because our food is still delicious, balanced and even more creative. So, thanks to you all for enjoying our healthy (mostly) plant-based meals.
The difference: Most travel companies struggle to reduce their travellers’ meat and dairy consumption, which accounts for a large portion of their carbon emissions.
We stay primarily in one location for the duration of the retreat. We have started staying in a few locations on our long haul, but it is limited to 2 or 3 locations over an 8 – 10 night period. Staying in one place means low carbon emissions because we aren’t burning fuel to get around.
The difference: Other adventure travel companies move around every two days, using alot of petrol in vehicles for sometimes only 1 or 2 people.
Our activities are low-impact—yoga, hiking, surfing, skiing/boarding, whitewater rafting, SUP, and kayaking are all very low-carbon activities, in fact, zero-carbon (except skiing/snowboarding due to the ski lifts, which is also low). These activities are included in the price we measure. The carbon may increase with travel to and from these activities in vehicles.
The difference: Other travel companies can include high-carbon activities in the price, such as jet skiing, quad biking, and jeep driving, which increases their carbon footprint.
We run more than half of our retreats and holidays in the UK; these are very low-carbon holidays.
We currently don’t measure our guests’ travel as part of our carbon output because our guests don’t only come from the UK, so it is hard for us to predict this. We also don’t include travel in the holiday price, which is not part of our calculations. We know that we provide these holidays, so we are looking to include this carbon measurement in the future so we are investigating how we can reduce this.
The carbon measurements at the top of the page with the icons are per person for the whole retreat.
Ultra-low-carbon holidays
These holidays are below 200 kg per person, and our UK retreats are below 100 or even 70 kg, so these are great adventures for low carbon breaks.
Ski holidays are actually low in carbon!
In France, many ski resorts are turning to green energy to power the lifts. If you eat low in meat and dairy while you’re there and hire your ski equipment, this makes your trip as low-carbon as possible.
How can you help?
There are ways that you can help reduce your carbon when coming on our retreats and holidays:
Travel by train, try slow travel across Europe and the UK.
If travelling abroad to Europe or further afield, choose carbon capture schemes, check out Ecologi. Offsetting is not the best thing to do these days, but try carbon capture where you pay for carbon to be absorbed into the environment.
Car share UK – we recommend when guests travel by train to arrive and depart at the same time to taxi share – which helps keep costs and carbon emissions down. Why not consider car share, too? Most guests who drive come alone or with a friend; we have WhatsApp groups that, if you like, you can see who is driving from your area and enjoy getting to know each other on the way to the retreats, and save on your carbon emissions at the same time!
We are by no means saints when it comes to producing carbon, as a travel company we know this is very difficult to reduce. We are working to reduce our carbon output each year by measuring it and then creating plans to reduce it. We are reviewing all our venues and asking them how they can improve their carbon reduction as we don’t own any of our venues but we would like to work with them to help in any way we can. We want to be transparent with this, so please get in touch for more information. As we change things, we will update the website.
Beautiful Greece
The dramatic landscape, picturesque towns, the wonderful heartwarming people of Greece, the stunning beaches, the food and stunning scenery make it a very special location to retreat to.
Greece is made up of the mainland and thousands of Islands spread throughout the Ionian and Aegean seas. We love Greece and will be adding a lot of opportunities to experience different Greek islands over the coming years.
For 2024 we will be in Santorini and Corfu. Find out more on the Corfu destination page here. Find out more on the Santorini destination page here.
About the yoga
Drawing from the energy of fire and water that surrounds you here in Santorini, along with the volcano, the Caldera, and the Aegean Sea, these elements will come into play during your yoga experience.
In the mornings, there will be a more dynamic vinyasa/hatha flow yoga class to wake the body and mind with meditation and pranayama while overlooking the views of the sea below.
The evening classes will be yin and restorative yoga and will be held either in the yoga studio or outside. With 3 hours of yoga over six days, you can start unwinding from your daily life, release into relaxation, and revitalise your energy over your week with us. Anyone of any age, ability, or level can enjoy this yoga practice.

About the Food
All of our retreat chefs are highly experienced and passionate about their craft. We have always been a vegan/vegetarian company since 2006.
Our chef on this yoga holiday will create a menu that will reflect the local and seasonal produce available, with a Greek flare seeing as the holiday is in Greece. Expect delicious and creative brunch, 3 light lunches, and 2-course evening meal for 5 evenings. Each meal will be balanced to keep you energised all day.
