Evia Bay Suites & Retreats
Yoga days by the Aegean
On North Evia, a day at Evia Bay can move from sea air and green hills to an open-air yoga deck shaded by a pergola. The retreat’s Undina Shala is a 50-square-meter wooden platform with curtains and vents, set up for yoga and breathing sessions led by experienced facilitators. Mats and props are on hand, so the focus can stay on movement and settling into practice rather than packing equipment. Meals lend the stay a distinctly local rhythm: an in-house chef prepares a generous brunch using seasonal ingredients, while dinner is served at a nearby Greek taverna, with vegetarian, pescatarian and gluten-free choices among the listed options. Rooms include air conditioning, Wi-Fi, towels and housekeeping, giving the retreat a comfortable base close to the beach in Edipsos. This is a good fit for travelers who want guided movement and breathwork alongside an island stay, rather than a tightly programmed silent retreat.

The practice
Yoga and breathing sessions are the core practices here, held in the open-air Undina Shala. Facilitators guide guests through movement and breathwork, with mats and props provided.
