2023 Health Bucket List: Greece’s Best Yoga Retreats

In recent years, more and more top-quality yoga, Pilates and meditation retreats have sprung up in breathtaking locations around the country, run by experienced instructors. They often include lovely and comfortable facilities, delicious organic food, nature and cultural excursions and the chance to meet like-minded individuals from around the world.

Why choose a retreat

Beyond recharging your batteries, there are many benefits to reap from participating in a Greek island wellness retreat, according to the growing number of people who have tried such over the last few years. Imagine having a yoga session as you overlook the sunset of Oia in Santorini, followed by a delicious meal made with fresh, local ingredients and then a deep, restorative sleep in a luxurious room with gorgeous sea views. Just the thought of it is deeply relaxing!
