So join Yogafurie at this magical spot in Cyprus, right on the doorstep of Akamas Peninsula National Park – and save £200 if you book in July of 2023!
What people said about this retreat…
What an amazing week – perfect location, fantastic weather, great swimming. But most importantly the best yoga teaching and the great company of like-minded souls. Thank you!
– Helen
I had no idea what to expect, but any apprehension soon vanished. I couldn’t have wished for a more perfect week. The ratio of yoga to chill out time was ideal, the location was perfect and I came home feeling invigorated and refreshed, but most importantly I found new friends and have many fabulous new memories.

What's Included

The Yoga
You’ll improve and develop the physical practice of Yoga posgures (asana). You'll also learn about and work on the deeper practices of meditation and breath (pranayama). Along with the delightful environment, all this will help you reflect, renew and recharge. Students often return home having learned something new that benefits their everyday life.
Physical practice (Yoga asana) starts at 9AM. Before that on some days we offer optional morning breath and mediation practice, sometimes on the beach while the sun rises over the bay. Some students spend the afternoon relaxing on the beach, others head off to enjoy the sights. There are walking and running routes from the hotel, and tours and watersports are available locally. We then join together again for early evening asana practice. On some evenings we round off with relaxing Yoga Nidra (this is also optional).

HIKING / RAMBLING
Akamas is a unique area, both geologically and geographically and with regard to Flora and Fauna. Almost all the geological formations of Cyprus can be found here, resulting in a real geological mosaic. For this reason, the Akamas peninsula is endowed with a unique biodiversity, habitats and ecosystems.
DISCOVER NATURE AND WILDLIFE ON YOUR DOORSTEP
Many Akamas visitors are nature lovers. In the Akamas Peninsula no less than approximately 530 different plant species grow, not to mention the world wide known orchids. The variety of fauna is equally impressive with its 168 birds, 12 mammals, 20 reptiles and 16 butterfly species that have been sighted in the area. The famous Baths of Aphrodite is both the start and the end of the two self guided nature trails on the Akamas.
HIRE A BIKE TO VENTURE FURTHER
You can cross this natural beauty via bicycle!
SWIM AND KAYAK TO EXPLORE THE SEA
The clear turquoise and calm waters of the sea in the area, make it perfect for swimming or kayaking.
VISIT THE LOCAL TAVERNS AND SHOPS
Only 3 minutes away by car is Latchi harbour where you will find a variety of taverns and shops. Latchi with its coastal boardwalk is the picturesque harbour of Polis, known throughout Cyprus for its fresh fish. In the past it served as a small port for shipping carobs. The old stone carob warehouses have been converted into restaurants, fish taverns and places for recreation.
