Did you ever think that you could be one of those people that got to vacation on a private ship in a far away and exotic destination? The Labrador is a traditional wooden en-suite vessel with ample room for Yoga sessions, dining together, relaxing in the shade, and navigating to hidden coves for a swim. Croatia Yoga Retreat cabins are on the upper, main and lower decks. Upper and main cabins will be available in order of registration.

The video below does not represent our exact trip but is intended to give you an idea of our itinerary and stops on the Adriatic.

Food

Coastal Cuisine in Croatia is influenced by Greek, Roman and Mediterranean traditions. Olive oil is used as well as a variety of spices such as rosemary, sage, bay leaf, oregano, marjoram, cinnamon, clove, nutmeg, and lemon and orange rind. The Dalmatian region has its own distinct cooking traditions utilizing fresh fish including oily fishes like sardines the ubiquitous octopus, mussels and oysters. Charcuterie and pasta are common and you will also find a pastry dish similar to spanakopita.

Wine

We’ve learned that Yogis do love wine, so you will be thrilled to know that Croatia has a wonderful history of winemaking brought from the Greeks centuries ago. While on this Croatia Yoga Retreat we will explore some new and exotic varieties!

Yoga

With the exception of the first day at the Hotel Ctiva, and our checkout day. we will practice Yoga each morning on the ship’s deck. Practices will be customized to the needs and preferences of the group. Creative sequencing and strategies will be utilized to accommodate our somewhat unorthodox location. Classes will be 60-75 minutes long depending on the day. A Yoga equipment bag will be supplied to each student. The bag includes a Yoga mat, 2 blocks, 2 pillows and a towel.
