Welcome to Baja California, Mexico! Our yoga retreat in Mexico begins upon arrival at Los Cabos International Airport (airport code: SJD – San Juan del Cabo). Our guide and private driver will welcome you with a warm “BIENVENIDO”, then we will head to our oceanfront accommodation in the peaceful village of La Ventana. Along the way, you’ll be able to admire the typical desert landscapes of Baja California Sur!
We will offer you a welcome dinner and a first yoga session facing the sea, which will allow us to get to know each other and prepare for the exciting week ahead of us!

After a good, tasty breakfast prepared by our local chef, a unique adventure awaits us. We will have the chance to walk through a forest of giant cacti (the biggest IN THE WORLD), while learning more about them with our local guide. Then, we will cross sand dunes to end our walk on one of the most beautiful beaches in the region. Let’s take the opportunity to cool off in the sea while waiting for our picnic to be served to us directly on the beach!
Upon returning from our excursion, we will have the chance to practice yoga once again in an idyllic setting and to the sound of the waves. Then, to conclude this wonderful day, those who wish can meet in a local restaurant around a fresh and typically Mexican meal!

The discovery of the treasures of Baja California continues today when we explore its marine life! We will sail the Sea of Cortez, nicknamed “the Aquarium of the World”, which is the natural habitat of many interesting marine species: mobula rays, sea lions, dolphins and several species of whales. Our captain will be happy to teach you more about their behaviors and answer all your questions about these fascinating animals!
Then, it will be time to dive into the water to get a closer look at this spectacular marine life. It is your chance to admire the corals and other colorful fish living in this ecosystem! We will then stop at a magnificent beach on the famous Cerralvo Island whose official name is Jacques Cousteau Island (in homage to this famous French oceanographer). It will be time to enjoy a delicious, fresh meal prepared for you, then cool off in the turquoise sea if you wish!
To end the day, a gentle yoga session will be offered to you to fully assimilate everything we have had the chance to admire today, followed by a good dinner in a local restaurant of your choice!

This morning we’ll explore the spectacular Baja California coastline on a guided hike that will blow your mind! This hike (~5.6km) of moderate level will last approximately 2 hours. We will even have the chance to cool off and relax on a small “secret” beach after the hike!
Then, when we return to our villa, our local chef will have prepared a small feast for us to regain energy after this morning’s efforts.
We will then have a free afternoon, where many options will be available to us: enjoy the beach directly in front of our accommodation, take a sea kayak or SUP (paddle board) ride, relax at the villa, etc.
The day will end gently with a yoga practice at sunset.
Included activities: Private transportation, guided coastal hike, then yoga

Then, another activity awaits us: a private cooking class with a local chef! We will have the opportunity to learn more about the culinary heritage of Baja California and spoil our taste buds by eating a typical dish from the region that we have prepared ourselves!
Then, we will conclude this beautiful day full of colors and flavors with a relaxing yoga session to the sound of the waves.
