Whale Swimming & Yoga Retreat – Tonga

Only 11 Spots Available (5 left)

17th-21st September 2024

With the disruption of Covid shutting the borders, Whale Swimming is well booked out in advance. We have managed to secure dates in the prime whale swimming season of September 2024! Do not miss this one, it will be an amazing adventure.

I was there at the end of July 2019 and it was an incredible spot and swimming with the humpback whales was just next level amazing!
It is the perfect place for a digital detox and to slow down and simplify life, creating time to dedicate to a daily yoga practice and awakening your adventurous spirit through kayaking, snorkelling and swimming with humpback whales.

Tonga is the kingdom of simplicity and it is on Uoleva Island that you will find such tranquil simplicity to refresh, refocus and reignite.

Leave your laptop, and to do list at home and join us to get back to basics and enjoy some island adventure. We encourage you to leave behind the make-up, hair straighteners and other baggage and live simply for a week. Getting back to basics and creating simplicity in your day is the best way to encourage creativity and flow.

We will be staying at a newly built Eco Retreat in wooden cabins on the beach. There will be daily yoga, optional floating therapy/meditation, stunning snorkelling, kayaking and stand up paddle boarding, island exploration and optional massage and diving.
The food is simple, natural and delicious (award winning chef from Chateau Tongariro).
This is a chance for those who are overwhelmed with work, family commitments and obligations and the busy-ness of life to step back, take a breathe, gain perspective and recharge and the perfect time of year to be doing that.

Uoleva Island is an untouched island paradise of white sandy beaches, turquoise blue waters and abundant reefs to explore. The way of life is simple, relaxed and focussed on the present.

Join us in September 2024 on one of the most stunning, tranquil beaches in Tonga and let’s get back to basics and have the adventure of a lifetime with like-minded people.
As the whale swimming is in such high demand we need to confirm our numbers as soon as possible as we will need to release any fales we don’t need.

– Wooden beach fale with 1 queen and 2 singles beds for $2980 each

The cost includes:

You will just need to take care of your flights (to Tonga and then on to Ha’apai). If you wanted to arrive a day or so early to Tonga and explore I would recommend staying along Ha’atafu beach. We stayed at Heilala, which were very authentic Tongan fales, Teukava Beach Oasis looked good also. They both offer pick ups from the airport.

We only have 11 spots available and are expecting them to go quickly (half are already sold out). Your spot is secured with an $600 deposit.

Please reference “Tonga Adventure” with your deposit.
