Experience the wonders of nature and reconnect with your authentic self on a serene journey amidst breathtaking landscapes. Embark on a revitalizing escape that embraces the essence of your being. Engage your body in invigorating yoga practices and nurture your soul through the harmonious integration of the five elements: the blazing fire of the sun, the grounding stability of the earth, the fluidity of water’s embrace, the enlightening breeze of knowledge, and the boundless expanse of ether.
Immerse yourself in a meticulously curated yoga retreat in Croatia, where a seamless blend of dynamic Vinyasa sessions and tranquil Hatha classes await you. Discover profound tranquility through blissful meditations and explore the art of SUP Yoga. Moreover, this exquisite experience grants you the opportunity to bask in the untouched magnificence of Kamenjak, a pristine natural park that emanates unspoiled beauty.
Your Journey
Choosing happiness is a daily decision, not merely an aspiration. Returning to your roots, a form of yoga, serves to ground you in your true essence, aligning your chakras and fostering holistic well-being, which is the cornerstone of all living beings. The universe itself exists in perfect harmony and balance.
However, humanity stands as an exception, often pursuing desires external to their body and soul, which creates an imbalance with the surrounding universe. Engaging in morning yoga by the sea, accompanied by the rhythmic crashing of waves and the soothing aroma of pine forests, allows you to connect with your inner self and synchronize with the greater cosmos.
Immersing yourself in nature, walking barefoot, mindfully meditating with each step within the labyrinth of pine trees, practicing yoga on water, finding balance on a board as the gentle rocking of the water beneath you resonates, feeling the warmth of the sun on your skin, and the refreshing breeze filling your lungs with revitalizing air.
These captivating elements serve as gentle reminders of the joy of existence, awakening the realization that happiness lies within each individual—a conscious choice made daily. This alignment with nature bestows a sense of tranquility that lingers even after departing, reminding you of the simplicity and beauty of life throughout the entire year.

Here, you will discover a collection of stunning pebble and rocky beaches, including the renowned Point Kamenjak, Sandy Cove Beach, Stupce Beach (a picturesque pebble beach), and Munte (offering a delightful combination of pebbles and a paved sunbathing area).
What sets Premantura apart is its commitment to accessibility, offering a beach specifically adapted for the blind. The town also holds significant historical sites waiting to be explored, such as the 17th-century Church of St. Lovre, located in the central square, which hosts a special festival on August 10th in honor of the patron saint of Premantura, St. Lovre. Additionally, the tower serves as a vital point of coordination for seafarers traveling along the coast.
During your stay in Premantura, be sure to venture out to the surrounding islands, particularly the fascinating Porer Island, which boasts a striking stone building housing a lighthouse available for rental.
