Yoga Retreats in Bali

Yoga retreats in Bali: how to choose

Where you stay shapes the week. Ubud, in the central hills, is the island's best-known yoga town, close to temples and rice terraces; the south coast around Canggu and Uluwatu mixes yoga with surfing and cafés; and the quieter west and north trade nightlife for space and village life. Small islands such as Nusa Lembongan, a boat ride off the south-east coast, add snorkelling.

The dry season runs roughly from April to October and is the busiest time, peaking in July and August. From November to March the wet season brings heavy afternoon showers, greener landscapes and, outside the Christmas holidays, fewer visitors.

9 of the 20 retreats here last four days or fewer, a long weekend on the island, and 9 run a week or longer. 19 of the 20 programmes here start between $160 and $2,099 per person, and the median starting price is $515.

Retreats in Bali often weave in Balinese culture: temple visits, a water blessing at a holy spring, or learning to make offerings. Temples expect covered shoulders and a sarong with a sash, which are often lent at the entrance.

Before you book

• Pay Bali's tourist levy for foreign visitors through the official Love Bali site, and check Indonesia's entry rules for your nationality.
• Ask whether the airport transfer is included, and how long it takes: the roads to Ubud and the west coast are often slow with traffic.
• Confirm the room, the meals and how many people share a class.
