Caribee Calm in Dominica
A transformative 6-night yoga retreat on the Nature Island, waterfalls, sulfur springs, whales and Kalinago wisdom.
A retreat of contrasts
Reconnect with nature and spirit on a transformative yoga retreat to Dominica, the Nature Island of the Caribbean. Each day blends grounding practice with the island's raw beauty, waterfall hikes through lush rainforest, rejuvenating dips in natural sulfur springs and awe-inspiring whale watching in pristine waters.
Immerse yourself in Kalinago culture, learning from the island's first people through meaningful cultural exchange that honors tradition, land and spirit.
This retreat is an invitation to slow down, reconnect and be deeply nourished by nature, movement and soulful exploration, from our home base at oceanfront Rosalie Bay Resort.
