The Co-Created Yacht Retreat Experience
Imagine setting sail on a magnificent yacht, surrounded by crystal-clear waters and breathtaking coastal scenery. Now, envision this journey as more than just a vacation; it’s a collective masterpiece, where each participant plays a vital role in crafting the most extraordinary and unforgettable experience.
Our co-created yacht retreats are like no other. These spacious yachts, accommodating 35-40 people, provide the canvas upon which we collaboratively paint the picture of an extraordinary voyage. Here’s how it works:
Voyage of Visionaries
At the heart of our co-created experiences is the idea that every participant brings something unique to the table. Whether you are a yoga teacher, life coach, musician, or simply someone with a passion for hosting adventures, your participation is encouraged.
A Tapestry of Creativity
Each trip is a tapestry woven from the creativity and talents of everyone on board. You might find yourself leading a sunrise yoga session on the yacht’s deck, guiding a group meditation to connect with the serenity of the sea, or hosting a workshop to share your expertise.
But the creativity doesn’t stop there. As the sun sets over the horizon, we come together for themed celebrations and music-filled nights, turning the yacht into a stage for unforgettable moments and connections.
Adventure Awaits
Beyond the yacht, there are opportunities for thrilling adventures, whether it’s exploring hidden coves, hiking along rugged coastlines, or diving into the vibrant underwater world. These excursions are another chance for us to bond and create cherished memories together.
Dinning Experiences
Dining becomes an experience in itself, with opportunities for participants to host dinning experiences that create unique ways for everyone to connect through gourmet feasts under the stars.
Collective Magic
In the end, it’s the collective energy, creativity, and contributions of each person that make our co-created yacht retreats truly magical. Together, we amplify the experience, turning it into an unforgettable journey of self-discovery, connection, and transformation.
Join us on a voyage where your uniqueness is celebrated, and your contributions shape an adventure like no other. Together, we create memories that will last a lifetime.
On our trips everyone is partaking in making the experience unique and special. Each person has the opportunity to contribute to the experience. There are time slots throughout the week that each person chooses and offers something to the experience. This could be a meditation, yoga class, fitness experience, hike, dance, dining experience, or one of many adventures on the islands of Croatia.

Itinerary
Day 01: Split/Bol
Check in with the Life Journey’s crew in the afternoon at Split Harbor
Meet our team and the yacht crew before we set sail toward Bol at 3pm (don’t be late!)
Settle into your space and prepare for the week ahead. Once we arrive in Bol, we will have dinner on board the yacht for the first time together and kick off the trip with a welcome ceremony so we can get to know one another and set some intentions for the experience.
Day 02: Makarska
In the morning there will be an (optional) yoga class available on the top deck of the yacht. Followed by a breathwork and Ice Bath workshop.
We will spend the afternoon swimming at one of the beautiful beaches (Buba Beach) on the Riviera, Where you can choose from all sorts of watersports and bungee jumping, then head into Makarska port for the night. Makarska nestles under the massive peaks of the Biokovo mountain range with Mt. Jure, the highest seaside peak on the Mediterranean.
Day 03: Korcula
After (optional) morning Yoga and Breathwork, we will depart early morning for Korcula. We stop off at the private island of Moro for some swimming and an intimate workshop then before the sun goes down we will head to Korcula and do a walking tour of one of Croatia’s oldest cities.
This evening we will have an incredible dinner and then have some time to explore and shop, or play some connection games on the yacht.
Day 04: Vis
After another optional yoga or workout we will depart for Vis in the morning. We will have lunch in the harbor before a full day of exploring! Virtually untouched by modern tourism, the island of Vis is steeped in military history. Established as a military zone, Vis has only been accessible to foreigners since 1989. It is hard to top Vis’ combination of hidden beaches, fresh seafood, and authentic Croatian wine.
This day is all about activities and exploration. Rent scooters and cruise the rolling hills of Vis. Stop for ice cream in the fisherman’s town of Komiza, then make your way back to Vis town for a wine tasting at Lipanovic. Finish the night with a workshop and sunset dinner at the incredible Fort George.
Day 05: Hvar
We’ll start the day with some (optional) restorative yoga and breakfast before departing for Hvar – a beautiful island with 13th-century walls, a hilltop fortress and a main square anchored by the Renaissance-era Hvar Cathedral.
Lunch will be served on the boat when we arrive in Hvar to prepare you for another day of exploring. Together, we’ll hike up to the incredible fortress where you can see the entire city. It’s quite the view. After wandering around the city, we’ll stop outside of Brac for an afternoon dip off the back of the yacht.
We’ll finish out the day with a beautiful sunset dinner followed by a workshop.
Day 06: Trogir
After starting the morning with (optional) yoga or workout and breakfast, we’ll sail for Trogir for a relaxing day of picturesque views and workshops. Trogir is known for having a historic centre which is considered the most preserved medieval town in central Europe. This center is considered by many as an “open museum” due to the number of Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque structures found in the town. The view from the bell tower is to die for.
In between meals and exploring, there will be workshops and talks – as well as plenty of time to enjoy the sun. You can also look forward to another epic sunset over dinner. It never gets old.
Day 07: Secluded Bay
It’s our last full day together, and you can bet it’ll be a special one. We’ll start our journey back to Split, but not without stops for swimming and sun bathing along the way – and one last night at sea!
You can expect a day filled with workshops, connection and deeper integration of everything you’ve experienced up to this point on the trip. We’ll eat yummy food and spend the day relaxing – while simultaneously preparing you to enter back into the “normal” world with the tools you need to create the life of your dreams back on land.
You can be sure this experience will leave you inspired and excited to uplevel your lifestyle and have more joy, connection and freedom in your everyday life.
Day 08: Split
After our final morning movement and breakfast, we’ll set sail from the private bay and head to Split for checkout at 9 AM.
The morning will be filled with lots of hugs, swapping Instagrams and WhatsApp numbers, and saying a goodbye – or rather “see you later” to the crew and your new family.
