Sukun Retreats is the first in the Middle East to bring yoga to Socotra — one of the most remote and untouched places on Earth. Over the course of the retreat, we journeyed across the island, pitching our tents in a new location each night and camping in four breathtaking sites, each more magical than the last.
Every detail was taken care of. We were fully equipped with personal tents, mattresses, bed sheets, blankets, pillows, and pillowcases — allowing everyone to fully sink into the experience without distraction.
Our campsites offered comfortable facilities, including toilets and showers, while thoughtfully set-up gazebos with tables and chairs became our communal gathering spaces. As the sun dipped below the horizon, evenings came alive around the fire — carpets laid out, pillows scattered, stories shared under a sky full of stars.
This was not just camping. It was a rare, immersive way of living in rhythm with nature — raw, grounding, and unforgettable.
