Retreat Schedule (Subject to change)
EMBARKATION
Marina Kastela
Welcome! Plan on being greeted by the crew and a glass of Prosecco upon arrival at the boat. We’ll get our safety briefing completed then set sail for our first port of the trip.
DAY ONE // Saturday, July 26
Split
We set sail once we’re all boarded and head straight to the port of Milna, where you can explore the town and grab dinner, or enjoy cocktails on the boat.
DAY TWO // Sunday, July 27
Vinogradse Bay
We start the day right by leaving early. We’ll have breakfast while looking for a swim stop. After swimming we’ll have lunch on the boats before we head off to Vinogradse Bay to enjoy the sunset while having dinner and cocktails.
Activities: swim, snorkel, water taxi to Hvar (optional extra), sunset cocktails
Evening: local restaurants, cocktails on the boat, visit old wine makers.
DAY THREE // Monday, July 28
Vis
We will depart early to get a head start on the day’s activities and to secure a berth on the very popular town Quay, so we can hop on and off our boats easily. You can take an excursion to the Blue Caves, Green Caves & Stiniva Bay. Plan on taking amazing pics to send home to friends and fam here. Once we are done with the action-packed stuff, we are off to the town of Vis where you can take a wine tour, military tour or just wander the streets at your own leisure.
DAY FOUR // Tuesday, July 29
Korcula
After sailing down the Dalmatian coast, we arrive at the postcard-perfect marina in the heart of fortified Korčula Island with plenty of time to wander the old backstreets. Korčula is the hometown of Marco Polo as well as a plethora of restaurants, bars, and jewelry stores. We will enjoy a sunset cocktail overlooking the sea before dinner. Just imagine if the stone walls could talk. Sunsets here are not to be missed.
Activities: swim, snorkel
Evening: bars, cocktails in old castle turrets, spectacular restaurants, cocktails on the boat
DAY FIVE // Wednesday, July 30
Pomena
We will stop in the crystal-clear waters for a swim, wine & lunch, before heading into Polače. You can bicycle through the National Park and around the beautiful lake for a golden sunset.
Activities: swimming, Mljet National Park tour, cycle the lake, explore the monastery
Evening: bars, traditional tavernas, cocktails on the boat
DAY SIX // Thursday, July 31
Okuklje
We have one more stop on Mljet on the way down and it’s the cute town of Okuklje. Try and pronounce that with a mouth-full! This is an old fishing bay and it’s amazing for star-gazing when all the lights have gone out.
Activities: swimming, beach day
Evening: cocktail bar, traditional taverna, cocktails on the boat
DAY SEVEN // Friday, August 1
Dubrovnik
We head down to Dubrovnik, but not before making one last swim stop before we arrive at the marina. If we’re up for it, we’ll have the option to go into the Old Town for sunset cocktails, dinner and painting the town red in the local bars and clubs.
Activities: swimming, cocktails on the beach, town sight-seeing
Evening: bars, traditional tavernas, cocktails on the boat, explore Dubrovnik Old Town
DISEMBARKATION // Saturday, August 2
Dubrovnik
Check out at 8am. Sadly it is time to say goodbye, until our next big adventure together.
A GYPSET Yoga Retreat with Melissa and Laurel was exactly what my corporate mama soul needed to ensure I was refreshed and re-energized after a long year of work, building teams, and deadlines. It was the perfect mix of connectedness with the other attendees, a peaceful time on my mat, and good workouts that challenged my mind and body. The organic from-scratch meals were another way to nourish and replenish, and I’m so grateful for this time away with the beautiful leadership of Melissa and Laurel. This is the best investment I’ve made for myself this year and cannot wait for my next retreat!
