El Nido
Remember the movie 'Beach' with Leonardo di Caprio? Apparently Alex Garland's book was originally inspired by the beauty of El Nido.

Endless white beaches, crystal clear waters and an underwater world, that will take your breath away. A destination that truly looks like paradise. The beauty of El Nido is hard to describe, you have to see the place with your own eyes.

The highlight of our stay are the island hopping tours showcasing nine islands for three days including a buffet lunch.

Please be advised that we will be traveling for six hours on the van to reach El Nido from Puerto Princesa OR taking a chartered flight straight to El Nido from Manila subject to availability.

Yoga session once a day either before or after the island hopping tour.

Puerto Princesa
Aptly nicknamed “the city in a forest.” It’s been named the Philippines’ cleanest and greenest city.
Optional tour: Underground River tour

Vaccinations

Disclaimer:
This journey is not for everyone...
Before applying to take part in this experience you must understand that what we offer is not a luxurious yoga holiday. This is a journey to the remote islands in Palawan. We do not guarantee that you will have a nice relaxing time. In fact we do not guarantee anything.

It might be bad weather, it might be rough waves. Limited privacy. Barking dogs, crowing roosters, mosquito bites, jellyfish stings, sunburn...but that is the nature of an island experience, the unexpected, the unknown, stepping outside your comfort zone. Yoga sessions will take place where there is space.

We love it, but we understand that this is not everyone's idea of a good time.

...is it YOURS?
