LANGUAGE:

English with French explanation

SUMMARY

Easy yoga practice. Nature immersion. Cultural tour. All optional. Participate at your own pace, alone, with a buddy or your sweetheart for great intimate moments shared in wellness or why not as a group of friends or family for a healthy stay on a tropical paradise island.

Enjoy a full-on ecotourist retreat where your day starts with a comfortable yoga practice (or time alone) followed by long walks in awesome nature spots in our endemic tropical forest on Mauritius island. Come back to relax on the white sandy beach and have a dip in the safe turquoise lagoon protected by coral reefs and nurtured by the Indian Ocean, finishing the day with a breathtaking sunset. On the third day, we’ll dab in the Mauritian cultural roots with a visit to our capital city of Port Louis, led by our facilitators.

We have tried to bring the most out of the retreat in a gist of 5 days where you can take care of yourself, enjoy the sea, forest, rivers and waterfalls as well as have a tour in the capital city of Mauritius to get a short but sweet experience of the Mauritian culture. It is a good start for your stay in Mauritius where you can experience much more.

Join our Green Tara retreat happening right after this one at the same location.

Welcome to Flic en Flac, a stunning beach village in Mauritius renowned for its beautiful, mile-long stretch of warm beaches. The lagoon is teeming with vibrant reefs and captivating marine life, making it a perfect spot for aquatic adventures. For a quick swim during the retreat beachtime, grab your mask and snorkel to swim alongside butterfly fish, small groupers, and an array of colourful species. Wear water shoes for added comfort, as they protect your feet from rubbing against corals which break off naturally from the coral reef preserving the lagoon.

With its mild climate and beautiful landscapes, Flic Flac is the perfect destination for relaxation and exploration. We invite you to fully embrace the beauty of Flic en Flac, a place that transforms throughout the day, enhancing all your outdoor retreat activities. The beauty of Flic en Flac captivates your attention, inviting you to embrace serenity. Here, stillness comes effortlessly, allowing you to unwind and reconnect with nature. Let the tranquil surroundings enhance your retreat experience, making each moment deeply conscious leaving a profound transformation.
