Serenity awaits…

It is said that a direct connection with nature can heal the soul. So when that spa treatment doesn’t quite hit the spot, a drive away from the city skylines to Sharjah’s popular Mleiha is sure to melt all that stress away.

The archaeological destination is popular for Fossil Rock, archaeological sites, cave trails, camping spots and more, but the Mleiha Archaeological Centre also hosts yoga retreats where you can truly connect with nature.

Mleiha Yoga Camp

At the moment, there are three rejuvenating yoga experiences planned from January to March 2024. And your session will include more than just stretches. There’s also meditation, stargazing, camping and of course, you can soak in all that beautiful nature.

The dates you can pick from include January 27, February 17, and March 9, 2024. Do note, that the January 27 and March 9 are reserved for ladies.
