Feather Leaf Inn offers beautiful ocean views and cozy accommodations, perfect for a relaxing escape. Its close proximity to local attractions makes it a delightful choice for exploring St. Croix.
Our first full day will start with an early morning conditioning class, followed by a delicious plant-based breakfast. After we eat, the property owners will give us a tour of their location and help us get acquainted with St Croix. After lunch, we'll take a ride to the beautiful Sandy Point beach for swimming and relaxation! We'll return to Feather Leaf Inn for an afternoon hot yoga practice and dinner.
Sandy Point National Wildlife Refuge offers stunning white sand beaches and crystal-clear waters. This is the famous location where they shot the final scene of the Shawshank Redemption! Open only on weekends.
Once again, we'll start our day with a morning workout and a delicious plant based breakfast. After breakfast, anybody that wants to participate in the half-day Buck Island Cruise will make their way to Christiansted. Anybody that wishes to relax at the Inn can book a massage instead! We'll all be back at Feather Leaf in time for dinner overlooking the ocean.
The half day tour departs from the Christiansted Boardwalk. To begin, you will spend time on Buck Island’s Turtle Beach, where you can learn to snorkel with a lesson provided by our crew or just relax and enjoy the beach. Then it’s off to our underwater trail where you will snorkel through the reef, home to hundreds of fish and coral species. We provide all the gear necessary and filtered drinking water throughout the day.
After a couple days of adventure, we'll take some extra time to relax! We'll stay "close to home" with shuttle drivers available all day to bring you to Fredriksted Peir (for the best snorkeling) or Rainbow Beach (for swimming and sunbathing.)
We'll offer classes and regular meals throughout the day. You'll also have the opportunity to participate in a Cooking Class with our hosts at Feather Leaf Inn and learn how to prepare these delicious meals when you return back home. We hear that this is one of the most popular activities with their retreat guests!
On Wednesday, we'll continue to live our best lives with morning classes, delicious plant based meals, and optional massage appointments. We'll stay close to home during the day and can help coordinate rides if you'd like to do any exploring on your own.
In the evening, we'll have an early dinner followed by an activity that can only be done in the evening during the new moon - a kayak paddle through the nearby luminous lagoon. Bioluminescence is the natural phenomenon of living creatures emitting light. When your paddle hits the water, you'll see the glow!
Ready for an indescribable experience you’ll remember for a lifetime? Our Bioluminescent Kayak Trip is by far one of our most popular St. Croix tours!
Your trip sets out before sundown, in “Bio Bay” on the east side of Salt River and one km kayak trip from our launch site. From there, your guide will fill you in on all the local ecology, history, and spiritual mysteries of Salt River before we head to Mangrove Lagoon to see the glowing water.
A truly mystical and natural wonder of nature, it is impossible to describe bioluminescent water other than a blue-ish aura that appears when you disturb the water. Truly one of St Croix’s most beautiful hidden gems!
By now, you'll be wishing that the trip would never end! We'll start the day again with an energizing workout and plant based meal. Take some time to relax, nap, read a book, and enjoy the view. There's lots to do, but take time to relax and soak it all up!
In the afternoon, we'll visit a nearby botanical garden that's popular with tourists and locals alike. This garden is located on a former plantation that has now been "partially restored" as a historical site that honors the native history and plants of St Croix. Enjoy a relaxed walking tour, admire the local tropical plants, and learn more about the amazing history of this island.
For our last full day on retreat, we'll head over to the East End of the island where you can experience a different part of St Croix with an entirely different landscape! We'll check out Jack & Isaac Bay Preserve, which includes two secluded beaches that can only be reached by hiking. We'll bring lunch to-go and enjoy a picnic at the beach before heading back to Feather Leaf for our final evening yoga class & dinner!
All good things must come to an end! We'll finish our trip with a final meal and final class together. As most flights from the island depart later in the afternoon, there may be some final opportunities to shop for souvenirs or visit the beach once you've packed up all your bags. Safe travels!
