• Transfer times from either Chania (CHQ) or Heraklion (HER) are about two hours. When you have your flight times let us know so we can help group people together. If you want to hire a car we can also help you with this, as well as directions. Chania airport-Yoga Rocks Heraklion airport-Yoga Rocks
• There are no cash points and only a very limited shop nearby so please bring cash – there are tavernas and lovely beaches within walking distance for outings
• We are 30 minutes by car from the Spili – a historic town with a spring and good amenities
• Bring money for Friday night dinner out (about €20), transfers, massage, souvenirs and possibly another €20 in case of a boat trip to Preveli we sometime organise if it fits with the retreat and guests fancy it. Massage is 70 euro for an hour and a quarter.
• The sun is strong so bring a high factor sun cream, a hat and cover up clothes – check what to bring for more ideas
• In Spring and Autumn bring long sleeves for cooler evenings.
• Towels and linen are of course provided at the retreat but please bring beach towel. Thank you.
• The water is great to drink so a reusable water bottle could be useful for beach expeditions – it will save money and waste, though now recycling is becoming more possible on Crete.
• Plugs – standard European
• Rugged terrain in places so good walking footwear is useful for adventurers
• Yoga mats, blankets, blocks and belts provided – alternatively you can bring your own mat
• Travel insurance is highly recommended
• At Yoga Rocks we invite you to drop down a gear and really relax. At the beginning of every week we will be there to help you to settle in as quickly as possible and see what your expectations are for your holiday
