← All Goa retreatsAbout this selection
South Goa's longer, less crowded beaches and heritage villages attract a more discerning retreat crowd — boutique Ayurvedic resorts, private villas, and empty beaches. South Goa has a strong Ashtanga lineage. The Mysore-style morning practice, the self-paced approach, and the direct teacher-student relationship of this tradition suit the retreat culture here particularly well. Seven days is the most popular retreat length in South Goa for good reason — it's enough time to develop a real practice routine, experience the local culture and environment, and return home with something that lasts. The first two days are arrival and settling; the final two are integration.
