Enjoy seven days of rest and relaxation at Tranquility, situated on 9 hectares of environmentally significant rainforest that runs down to the beach at Perry Hervey Jetty in Mission Beach.

You’ll stay in delightful rooms, be treated to delicious vegetarian fare and enjoy a program of user-friendly meditation, yoga and walks through the rainforest and along the beach.

The retreat provides you with a chance to get away for a week and to relax, recharge and reflect.

If you’ve never been on a meditation retreat before, this is a great place to start — and if you are new to meditation and mindfulness you’ll be gently eased into the practice with simple, user-friendly techniques and expert instruction. The atmosphere will be friendly and light-hearted, and the schedule allows plenty of time for rest, reading, naps, a dip in the pool or a stroll along secluded beaches.

For more experienced practitioners there will be talks and discussions on a variety of topics customised to your needs.

You will also have the opportunity to join us on a short hike along the beach and through the rainforest and in a variety of practices designed to stretch, loosen and nourish the body.

With secluded beaches meeting the Great Barrier Reef, unique accomodation and delicious cuisine, Tranquility is an un spoilt paradise and perfect winter escape.

This is a very exclusive retreat!

MEALS

Three hearty vegetarian meals are provided each day, along with a variety of teas and coffee. We can cater for those with special dietary needs, including those requiring vegan or gluten, wheat and dairy-free meals.

Important note:

Please note that we encourage participants to engage in ‘respectful quiet’. This isn’t a demand for silence, but rather, an invitation to take a break from continual chat and to enjoy the relative quiet available on retreat. Accordingly, we invite you to engage in conversation during scheduled meetings and discussions, but to minimise talk at other times. Of course, you are welcome to chat on walks away from the retreat centre.
