Details

Set on the shores of Vilankulo, overlooking the turquoise channels of the Bazaruto Archipelago, our yoga retreats at Bahia Mar are an invitation to slow down and reconnect — with your breath, your body, and the natural rhythm of the Indian Ocean. Practice unfolds in our dedicated yoga studio and in open-air settings by the sea, where sessions move with the light of the day: energising morning flows as the sun rises over the water, and gentle, restorative practice as the tide draws out at dusk. Between sessions, the pace is unhurried — barefoot walks along the beach, quiet moments in the garden, treatments at TheSPA, or simply the stillness of watching dhows drift across the horizon. Our intent is simple: to create space. Space to release tension, deepen your practice whatever your level, and return home feeling grounded, rested, and renewed. Guests often tell us the greatest benefit is not just physical — improved strength, flexibility, and sleep — but the sense of calm that stays with them long after they leave. What makes a retreat here unique is the setting itself. As Mozambique's only Fair Trade Tourism-certified hotel, Bahia Mar weaves care into everything — from the food on your plate to the community and marine conservation work that surrounds you. Add the possibility of aerial yoga, ocean swims steps from your mat, and encounters with one of Africa's most pristine marine ecosystems, and the result is a retreat that nourishes far beyond the practice itself.

Meals Food at Bahia Mar is an extension of the retreat itself — fresh, nourishing, and deeply connected to place. Our kitchen is led by chefs Joël and François, whose French culinary roots have been shaped by more than two decades in Mozambique, resulting in cuisine that pairs refined technique with the vibrancy of local ingredients. Menus are built around what the region offers each day: fruit and vegetables from nearby growers, fragrant herbs, and the freshest catch from local fishermen. Retreat dining leans light and wholesome, with an emphasis on plant-forward dishes designed to complement your practice — colourful salads, wholesome grains, tropical fruits, and fresh juices — alongside beautifully prepared seafood for those who wish. Vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options are available at every meal, and our chefs are happy to adapt to individual dietary needs with advance notice. Each day begins with a generous breakfast after morning practice, and meals are served with the ocean in view, making every table a moment of pause and pleasure.
