Portugal on the Solstice
Monte Velho Retreat Center
Yoga+Ceremony
Step away from the noise and into the wild stillness of nature. Nestles in the heart of the Algarve’s sun-soaked cliffs and ancient forests, our 7 day retreat at Monte Velho Retreat Center offers a transformative blend of daily yoga, guided shamanic ceremonies, and deep inner work.
Our divine timing begins with a new moon and ends on the day before the Summer Solstice. Inviting you into a time of sacred reset, and a journey back to your essence.
The Setting
Perched on the edge of Europe where land meets the Atlantic, Monte Velho is a sanctuary for soul seekers. With panoramic ocean views, pine forests, and eco-conscious architecture, it’s the perfect space to reconnect with nature — and yourself.
