71. Yoga Retreat in Atmospheric Koufonisia, September 2023

Yoga Retreat Koufonisia

Yoga Retreat on the Aegean’s grandest balcony, on one of Greece’s most atmospheric islands: Koufonisia. We experienced magnificent sunsets and the blue moon, wandered through the narrow alleys, and discovered unique coves with breathtaking beaches. We also had the chance to take a boat trip to Kato Koufonisi, Schinoussa, and Iraklia. To truly enjoy Koufonisia, you must walk the land and feel the island’s vibes. This was our second year in a place that breathes the essence of Greece and the Aegean. Our yoga practices helped us relax, open up, and breathe, allowing us to start the autumn with optimism. We enjoyed the ultimate “slow living” destination in Greece.
