The 20-second answer
The practice travels with you.
For practitioners who want to go deeper without spending the whole journey inside a shala. Practice anchors the mornings; Favignana gets the rest of the day.

You will love it if…
Your practice matters — but it’s not your whole holiday
Ashtanga anchors the mornings. Once practice is over, Favignana is yours to swim, cycle, explore or simply do very little.
You like structure without being scheduled all day
We come together for practice and a few shared moments, but we deliberately leave plenty of space around them. No compulsory group programme from breakfast to dinner.
You’d rather experience an island than retreat from it
This isn’t a retreat designed to keep you inside one property. Bikes, beaches, coves and island life are part of the journey too.
You practice. Or someone you love does.
Non-practitioners are more than welcome. Join your partner, friend or travel companion for the journey and simply skip the morning practice — Favignana still works perfectly well without a yoga mat.
Think twice if…
You want yoga to fill the whole day
Practice is central to the journey, but it doesn’t take over the itinerary. Once we leave the mat, Favignana gets plenty of space.
You’re looking for a luxury retreat experience
This is an island journey built around practice, not a five-star wellness escape. The focus is on Favignana, the community and the time on the mat.
Early mornings and practice don’t get along for you
Ashtanga happens in the morning. The upside? When practice is done, you still have almost the whole island day ahead of you.
Meet local guides, artisans and people who live here.
We travel mainly on foot or by bicycle.
Landmark sights and stops beyond the busiest tourist routes.
Some services are provided by independent, locally owned businesses.

01Trapani · FavignanaLeave the mainland behind
Leave the mainland behind
We meet at Trapani port and take the 18:00 ferry together to Favignana.
It’s a short crossing, but an important one: mainland behind, island ahead. Once in Favignana, we check in, settle down and meet again for our welcome dinner.
No practice today. Getting to an island is enough of a programme.
In practice
Meeting point: Trapani port · by 17:00
Ferry: 18:00 · included
You can arrive and depart from either Trapani or Palermo airport, whichever works best for your flights.
Exact meeting point details will be sent closer to departure.
If you fly into Palermo, public buses to Trapani run almost every hour, so getting there is easy and convenient.

02FavignanaPractice first. Island after.
Practice first. Island after.
The first practice starts at 07:00.
We spend two hours together on the mat, then Favignana gets the rest of the day. ^^A bicycle is included for the full day^^, giving you the simplest way to move around the island and decide where to stop.
Cala Rossa, Cala Azzurra, a long lunch, another swim — there’s no group sightseeing programme to keep up with. The structure belongs to the morning; the island belongs to you.

03FavignanaPractice. Then sea.
Practice. Then sea.
Morning practice sets the rhythm again. After that, the day opens up.
If you want to see Favignana from the water, today you can join an optional boat excursion around the island’s coves. If you’d rather stay on land, nothing needs replacing: beach, bike, lunch, nap. All perfectly valid plans.
The boat is an option, not the reason the day exists.

04FavignanaNothing else needs booking
Nothing else needs booking
One more morning practice, then one last full day with the island.
By now you know where you want to swim again, which road you didn’t take and possibly where you want lunch. There’s no need to manufacture another organised activity just because there’s space in the itinerary.
Later, we come back together for the farewell dinner.

One last Mysore room
There’s time for one final morning on the mat before checking out.
Then we take the included ferry back to Trapani and return to the mainland. From there, everyone continues independently — home, Sicily, or somewhere else entirely.
Five days. Four nights. Quite a lot happened before breakfast.
