Dolphin Retreats in Hawaii
Come, join us for an unforgettable experience
Relax and play with dolphins. Tune into your own spirit, share
in the Aloha experience in a magical ocean-front, tropical setting.
These are a few of the friends that are awaiting you! (Picture
taken by one of the retreat participants)
Swimming with the dolphins was one of the most enlightening experiences
of my life.
And, even more important - I will never forget the amazing bonds among the
people
on the retreat - an instant family was created.

Our retreats take place in a magnificent bay on the Kona
Coast of the Big Island of Hawaii, a place of eternal sunshine, warm ocean
and abundant marine life. Sometimes dolphins swim by as close as
the rocks you can see here. The spinner dolphins have been coming to this
protected bay since immemorial times to feed, mate, frolic and play and
are very friendly to swimmers and kayaks.
The oceanfront retreat home we have chosen for the retreat
features large living rooms, a magnificent kitchen, high ceilings and luxury
accomodations. Private rooms are offered upon deposit based on space availability.
Most of them have oceanview and the water is within 20 feet. Ample decks
offer magnificent 180 degree ocean and sunset views. Just across the road
is an ancient Heiau, a sacred Hawaiian temple.
The ocean is home to colourful corals and fish you would
only expect in an aquarium. You can go snorkeling directly from the house.
From the main terrace it is just a few steps to the Bay. Lounge chairs are
available for a refreshing rest after the swim. You will discover, why this
is called a 'retreat' and not a 'workshop'.
A beautiful Hot Tub was built recently on the left side of this picture,
directly adjacent to the ocean.
We have so many wonderful memories to take home with us - from the glorious dolphin encounters to Yoga to meeting such
wonderful people, delicious meals, gracious hospitality, nature
at its most beaiutiful. Thank you for a perfect retreat!

The spinner dolphins have been coming to this protected
bay since immemorial times to feed, mate, frolic and play and are very
friendly to swimmers and kayaks. This is the best place in the entire world
to meet them, because they come regularly and they come close to shore.
The bay is a marine sanctuary, protecting the dolphins
from harassment and our programs strongly emphasize that by not chasing
and disturbing the dolphins, rather allowing them to come closer to us
humans if they decide to do so.
The facilitator, Tanmayo Moreau-Brown,
is an internationally renowned Yoga instructor,
Lomi-Lomi massage teacher and healer. Born in France, she is an extensive
world traveler and has been living in Hawaii since 1987, facilitating numerous
dolphin encounters in the wild. Together with her deep understanding of
bodymind and relationship dynamics she shares her deep love for the ocean
and the Hawaiian Islands. (Note: This picture was
not taken in the bay.)
