Escape to one of Central America’s last untouched gems, where volcanic valleys meet black-sand beaches and the night sky glitters with more stars than you ever imagined. This retreat blends ocean-view yoga, soulful adventure, and the spaciousness to reconnect with yourself and ignite.
Mornings begin with movement and meditation in an open-air shala overlooking the Pacific. Afternoons invite you to play in the waves, try your hand at surfing, or venture out for unforgettable excursions like sandboarding down a black-sand volcano while exploring landscapes that feel straight out of Mars or wakesurfing through a mangrove tree lagoon. Evenings are for rest, connection and savoring the slower rhythm of coastal life.
Whether you’re here for the yoga, the adrenaline, the ocean or the quiet, this week offers a chance to strip back the noise of everyday life and return to what feels true. Nicaragua is a rare kind of magic and we can’t wait to share it with you!
