Heir Island
Co. Cork
Ireland
Enjoy a yoga and kayaking weekend on Heir Island off the beautiful coastline of West Cork.
Heir Island is a beautiful little island off the coast of West Cork, It has 7 beaches, majestic cliffs and only 25 year-round residents. It is the perfect spot for a yoga and kayaking adventure!
Retreaters will stay at the gorgeous Roaringwater Lodge Guest House and will enjoy delicious vegetarian cuisine. Accommodation is based on twin/double sharing with some private rooms. All rooms are en-suite (see heirislandsailingschool.com for more information).
Classes will be held in the stunning, purpose-built Heir Island Retreat Centre, just a two-minute lazy walk along the bay from the guest house. The centre has a beautiful studio overlooking the ocean as well as a chill out room, therapy room, kitchenette and bathroom.
The Yoga classes will suit all levels and the weekend will include Ashtanga flow classes, focus workshops, as well as meditation and pranayama sessions. Kayaking is optional but highly recommended as the scenery around the Carbury Islands is spectacular from the water! And you don’t have to have any experience to give it a go!
