Greek Island GetawayExperience an unforgettable wellness and fitness retreat in Paros, Greece—one of the most beautiful islands in the Aegean Sea. This all-levels retreat combines daily workouts, breathtaking hikes, and rich cultural experiences in a supportive group setting designed especially for women who love to move, explore, and recharge.
Nestled among whitewashed villages and stunning beaches, Paros offers the perfect backdrop for your Greek island adventure. Our retreat blends invigorating activities—like seaside strength classes and scenic hikes—with the best of Greek culture, including a hands-on cooking class, a relaxing boat day, and a sunset wine tasting. Fitness Classes: Led by Coach Beth, this all-levels fitness retreat in Greece includes a mix of bodyweight strength training, mobility work, and mindful stretching. Whether you're new to fitness or a seasoned athlete, you'll challenge your body in a safe, energizing environment. Adventure & Activities: Two unique hikes are slated for our retreat, exploring different parts of the island. The moderately-difficult treks will take us through villages, mountains, and sea-view countrysides. One measures a smoother 6km and the other a more challenging 10km. Keep in mind all activities are optional in case you prefer to skip. Culture & Relaxation: Enjoy Greek hospitality with a hands-on cooking class, a private vineyard wine tasting, and a serene boat tour on the Aegean. During your free time, relax at the pool or beach, explore Paros' charming villages, or join an optional excursion. |
