Your Journey
Your retreat begins in Maputo before travelling to the pristine beaches of Ponta Malongane. From there, you’ll venture into South Africa’s Tembe Elephant Park for an immersive safari experience before returning to the Mozambican coast to spend seven restorative nights overlooking the Indian Ocean.
Each day is thoughtfully balanced with wildlife experiences, yoga, meditation, time to rest, and opportunities to absorb the beauty of Africa at your own pace. Participation in all activities is optional, allowing you to create the retreat experience that feels right for you.
Together, Géraldine and Courtney bring decades of experience in yoga, breathwork, meditation, sound therapy, wildlife guiding, and transformational retreat facilitation. Their shared passion for Africa, nature and holistic wellbeing creates a safe and nurturing environment for deep personal growth.
Spaces are Limited
To ensure a deeply personal experience, this retreat is limited to 12 participants, with a minimum of eight guests required for the retreat to run.
