Dreamscape Retreat
June 5th - June 9th, 2024 • Obonjan, Croatia
DreamLab Yoga invites you to join an epic adventure: a dreamy escape to the Mediterranean - the DreamScape Retreat!
Get ready to leave the busyness of your everyday life behind and find deep relaxation on a paradise island.
During this 5-day long immersion into movement and mindfulness, you will practice on the beach surrounded by pine trees and crystal-clear water, enjoy the beauty of untouched nature, and sleep under the star-filled sky.
Location
Far from the hustle and bustle of the cities, Obonjan, an uninhibited island, lies just an hour away by boat from Croatia's mainland.
This small private island is located in central Dalmatia and can be reached by boat from the historic town of Šibenik. Obonjan is known to be an oasis of peace, a complete "stress-free" zone where cars are not allowed, and only a handful of people are permitted on the island at any given time. Modern yet exuding a Robinson Crusoe vibe, the island offers a unique experience, providing everything you need to leave your worries behind and fully relax.
Getting to the location
Transportation to Obonjan and back is not part of the offer but we can help you organise your trip.
If you are coming from Berlin, the easiest way to get to Obonjan is to fly to Split, then take the bus to Šibenik and finally a boat to Obonjan.
On the 5th of June, there is a direct flight with EasyJet at 8:40 from BER Berlin Brandenburg to Split (duration 1h50) and, on Sunday the 9th of June, from Split to Berlin at 20:20 (duration 1h55).
Šibenik can be reached by all means of transport. If you are coming from Split airport, you can either take the local bus or, if there are enough people interested, we can organise a mini bus. Depending on the number of people, the price for the mini bus (one way) is between 8 - 9€.
The island is accessible by boat or speedboat departing from the harbour in Šibenik. Depending on the type of the boat, the journey will take anywhere between 25 minutes and 1 hour. We will organise the boats for you once we know your travel plans. The average price (the price varies depending on the number of people) of the return ticket is 35€.
