Tayrona National Park Yoga Retreat
A Caribbean Journey of Yoga, Nature & Devotion
Where the Sierra Nevada meets the Caribbean
Join us for five unforgettable days on Colombia’s Caribbean coast, where lush mountains meet turquoise waters. Reconnect with nature, deepen your practice and experience yoga, meditation, kirtan, adventure and meaningful community.
Explore Santa Marta’s historic streets and float down the Palomino River toward the ocean, then spend our final days in a beautiful house beside a quiet beach in the Tayrona region.
This intimate retreat is open to all yoga practitioners as a standalone journey and also celebrates the conclusion of our 300-hour Therapeutic Yoga & Ayurveda Teacher Training.
Five days of exploration & renewal
Welcome to the Caribbean
Santa Marta & Palomino
We meet early in Santa Marta and enjoy vegetarian lunch at a local restaurant, followed by time to explore the historic district, colorful streets, plazas and colonial architecture. In the afternoon, we travel approximately two hours along the coast to Palomino, where we settle in for dinner and rest.
Where the River Meets the Sea
Yoga, meditation & Palomino River adventure
Begin with yoga and meditation. Enjoy guided river tubing along the Palomino River toward the Caribbean, surrounded by lush vegetation, mountains and birdlife. Lunch is by the ocean, followed by free time to explore beaches, cafés and artisan shops. Evening kirtan and a special group activity bring us together.
Entering the Beauty of Tayrona
Tropical forest, beach house & yoga
After breakfast, we journey to our beautiful house in the Tayrona region, with direct access to its own secluded beach area. Enjoy vegetarian lunch, a restful afternoon by the sea, and swimming or snorkeling where conditions and park rules permit. We gather for evening yoga and meditation.
A Day of Deep Connection
Beach yoga, nature walks & Yoga Nidra
Awaken to the waves for yoga, pranayama and meditation overlooking the ocean. Explore tropical forest trails and discover the remarkable local flora and fauna, followed by time to rest and enjoy the beach. End the day with restorative yoga and a deeply peaceful Yoga Nidra session.
Integration & Farewell
Yoga workshop, beach time & closing circle
Our final morning includes yoga and meditation by the sea, a special yoga workshop and free time on the beach. We share a closing circle and lunch before returning to Santa Marta, where we aim to finish at approximately 4:00 PM, subject to road conditions. Please allow a comfortable buffer before flights.
