Yoga & Meditation Retreats in Andalusia

Yoga, meditation and detox retreats in Andalusia, Spain: Níjar and Cabo de Gata, The Garden of Nâm, Ayurvedic food and a dedicated men’s retreat.

Why Andalusia for a yoga retreat?

In the far south-east of Spain, in the province of Almería, the white village of Níjar looks out over one of the most unusual landscapes in Europe. Nearby lies the Cabo de Gata-Níjar Natural Park, a protected volcanic coastline of quiet coves, dry hills and big skies. It is one of the sunniest and most peaceful corners of Andalusia, far from the crowds of the Costa del Sol.

This is where our Andalusian retreats take place, close to The Garden of Nâm: a peaceful setting surrounded by gardens and mountain scenery, with traditional Andalusian-style guestrooms. Light, silence and simple, nourishing food make it a natural place to slow down.

Andalusia beyond the retreat

If you have time before or after, Andalusia rewards curiosity: the Alhambra in Granada, the old quarters of Almería, and the beaches and walking paths of Cabo de Gata. You may like to add a day or two to your journey. The Peace Center also holds gatherings and festivals in Andalusia; see our events and festivals.

When to go

Spring and autumn bring warm, bright days that are ideal for practice outdoors, and winters on this coast are mild compared with much of Europe. High summer is hot, so mornings and evenings become the best moments for movement.

Who are these retreats for?

They are for anyone who wants to rest and recharge in nature: people who feel depleted and want to reset their habits, those who are curious about yoga and meditation, and men who are looking for a grounded space to reconnect.
