MEDITERRANEAN RETREATS CENTRE
The building, now fully renovated into a yoga and holistic healing retreat center, was originally a traditional Greek taverna and small hotel.
It overlooks the Gulf of Kalloni (the sea is just meters away) and is completely isolated, immersed in an exceptionally beautiful natural setting.
This area is a paradise for birdwatching lovers, especially in spring, when people from all over the world come to see pink flamingos, white and black storks, peregrine falcons, and many other rare migratory birds.
The gulf is also a vital breeding ground for many fish species, making the waters rich with life.
Its location, peacefulness, and the elemental energy of the natural surroundings make it an ideal place to fully immerse yourself in yoga and healing practices, letting go of the emotional and physical burdens we often carry.
