      Getting to Amorgos

      Please note: if you are flying into Athens you WILL need to arrive a day early in order to catch ta ferry to Amorgos. The ferries only leave in the AM and unless you arrive in Athens VERY early, before 6AM, it is unlikely you will make the ferry to Amorgos.   


      The 2024 ferry schedules will be announced in early 2024 but most of the time the arrival and departure hours are the same/similar, so you can look into this year's July dates in order to have an idea what your travel plans should look like. You can check out the ferry schedule at www.openseas.gr - kindly note that Amorgos has two ports - Aegiali and Katapola so make sure to search both.


      Regarding traveling options, please find some detailed information below:

      Summer/early fall:
      Usually, from late April each year until mid-October, you can travel to Amorgos with a direct ferry or high-speed vessel from Athens, Paros, Naxos, Mykonos, and Santorini, that all feature an airport which has direct flights and connections with major cities across the world during summer.

      If you choose to fly to Athens and travel from the port of Piraeus to Amorgos, you can either embark on a Blue Star ferry (approximate travel duration: 8 hours) or a high-speed vessel (approximate travel duration: 4-5 hours).

      If you choose to travel from Santorini, you will embark on a high-speed vessel that will bring you to Amorgos in 1-3 hours.

      Naxos is 2-3 hours away from Amorgos depending on the vessel.





       HOW TO TRAVEL FROM ATHENS TO AMORGOS

      Amorgos does not have an airport but is easily reached with daily ferries and high speed vessels. Athens International Airport (ATH) is the most convenient to arrive. Ferries start from Athens port, Piraeus and dock alternately at the two ports of Amorgos Island: Katapola and Aegiali (near to the hotel).

      At this time, the earliest ferry leaves Athens at 6:45am on June 28th and the latest at 9am.  While this is a long cruise-- you'll be cruising trough the Greek Isles, and we can think of worse things.

      We will pick you up at whatever port you arrive in.  I will greet you at Aegialis when you arrive.  I will send a form out soon for ferry and flight information, as well as any dietary restrictions. 

      Book your ferry from Amorgos or Santorini here: https://www.ferryscanner.com/en/ferry 

      When departing, please remember that the ferry schedule can affect your flight.   Currently, the two ferries arrive in Athens after 8pm on July 5 and at 5am on July 6th respectively.  We suggest opening one extra night in Athens or flying directly out of Santorini.   Please check ferry schedules before booking flights.  










      FREE and unlimited use of Spa facilities sauna, hammam, jacuzzi, sea water indoor swimming pool and fitness center. Restore your natural balance and pamper yourself with treatments and massages designed to awaken your senses.

      Equipment

      Cork Yoga mats and Blocks

Their custom-made mats are made from natural cork as the top part and supported by a layer of natural rubber at the bottom. The blocks are steady and strong, but light in weight which makes the use of these simple and practical.

      It was a perfect blend of coordinated events and free time to explore or relax. The season and location was perfect, especially for the diffrrent themed Element of the day. The resort chosen was professional, inviting, clean, and promptly took care of any requests made. Travel plans and anxiety was quickly brought to ease due to B&B's "no man left behind" attitude that was demonstrated by their constant transparency, communication, and availability. The whole experience made you feel like home away from home and a unique experience that will always be remembered. We arrived as strangers but left as family ❤️ Highly recommend!

      I had a great trip. I really enjoyed the natural beauty of Costa Rica while in the comfort of the lovely resort. I was hoping to have time to swim in the ocean and I got a chance daily. The people of Costa Rica are so nice. I was hoping to see monkeys and we saw them several times. Now that I am back from the trip I am so pleased that Debby took pictures of me to remember my trip and share online with family and friends. My pictures that I took were ok but Debby's were way better. I also enjoyed her yoga classes which were very approachable for the group. Thank you for organizing this wonderful trip. It was more amazing than I could have imagined.

      I went along on the B&B Dominican Treehouse retreat and I am SO happy I went. The place was truly magical, and it was amazing being able to disconnect from every day life, to reconnect with nature. This trip was very well organized and loaded with adventures that you had the opportunity to participate in or you could sit back and do your own thing which is so great to have the option. Any questions I had were quickly answered and everyone involved was so helpful. The planning of the trip was seamless. I experienced so many amazing things while on this trip, that I will never forget. I had one of the best times of my life being able to meet new people and make connections. Everyone on this trip was so warm and welcoming and helpful. I don’t think I will ever meet a better group of people than the ones I met on this trip! Highly recommend going on a retreat with B&B! Plus, they give you great swag bags!

      The Dominican Treehouse was my first B&B retreat, and will not be my last! This place was magical! It’s clear that Trenna has a true passion for traveling to special places and put so much thought into making the retreat special for everyone. I am still processing all that this experience has given me and will cherish it forever. Anyone who has the means and desire to do a retreat but nervous to go alone, DO IT! There were a few of us who traveled alone and didn’t know anyone before the trip and I’m sure they feel the same after this retreat with Trenna and her B&B teachers. Thank you for sharing your passion to make this happen!

      It’s hard to even find words for how incredible my trip to the Dominican Republic, with Breath and Bend Retreats was. They made it effortless on my end and everything was very organized. It was the perfect mixture of health, healing and relaxation along with FUN and adventure. The itinerary was perfectly planned but you didn’t feel obligated to do any of it if you didn’t want to. The swag bag was the cherry on top and very nice! The vibe from every single person was incredible and everyone was so kind. I went in knowing NO ONE and left feeling like I connected with everyone. I hope I can go on every retreat with them in the future.
