← All Portugal retreatsAbout this selection
One of only two World Surfing Reserves in Europe, Ericeira combines serious surf with a strong yoga and wellness community — an hour from Lisbon. Vipassana meditation in Ericeira — often conducted in silence for 7–10 days — takes on additional depth in this setting. The retreat context removes the obstacles that urban life creates for sustained insight practice. November falls outside Ericeira's peak yoga season, which runs April, May, June. That said, retreats run year-round and the off-season offers genuine advantages: lower prices, smaller groups, and a quieter environment that some practitioners actively prefer. The practice itself is unchanged.
