About this trip
Join Sheila Ewers for Myth, Magic and Movement on the most beautiful island in Greece!
We’ll travel to the unspoiled island of Amorgos, Greece at the Southeastern edge of the Cyclades to dive deeply into Yoga, Greek Mythology, and adventure at the beautiful Aegialis Hotel and Spa.
Soak up the sun, swim in the indescribably blue waters of the Aegean Sea, unplug from your hectic daily life and reconnect to your heart as you participate in daily practice, dine on fresh wholesome food, spoil yourself with a massage, and make new friends.
This year, Sheila will be joined by special guests, Dennis and Kathy Lang who will be bringing their unique blend of music and movement to enhance our practices. Learn more about them HERE.
Travel Details
US Citizens traveling to Greece need a current passport. Check the expiration date to make sure that it does not expire within 6 months of your trip. Visas are not required.
Concerns about the European Economy have had very little effect on tourism in Greece, especially outside the capital. ATMs may limit the amount of money you may withdraw, so it is advisable to manage your cash accordingly. Most small businesses prefer cash transactions, but larger hotels and transport companies usually accept Master Card and Visa.
Stay abreast of any travel advisories through the US State Department Website.
The remote location of Amorgos works like a natural filter keeping crowds small and the island unspoiled. From the United States, you will fly to Athens. You should plan to arrive at least one day before the start of the retreat.
Option 1: Ferry from Athens
Ferries run between Athens and the ports of Katapola and Aegialis on either Seajets or Blue Star. The best and easiest ferry is the Blue Star (or Hellenic) Highspeed 4. We recommend an upgrade to the VIP section for the most comfortable travel and optimal viewing.
Option 2: Ferry from Santorini or Naxos
Flights are plentiful and inexpensive between Athens and Santorini or Athens and Naxos and the Ferry ride from either one is approximately 1-3 hours. Travel typically takes place midday.
