Simple, Gentle Outings That Fit the Rhythm of Retreats
Outings at Lan Sabai are meant to complement the week, not disrupt it.
They’re chosen carefully — light, spacious excursions that add colour and perspective without pulling people out of the retreat experience.
Here are the outings that tend to work well.
Perfect
The sunset private catamaran was fantastic. We all loved it, and it far exceeded a similar experience we booked ourselves previously.
Sunday Night – Old Town Market
A relaxed way to meet local culture.
The market has warm lighting, handmade crafts, food stalls, and a soft evening buzz.
It’s a gentle introduction to the area without overstimulation.
- Travel time: approx 45–60 minutes
- Fits best: Arrival weekend or free evening
Big Buddha Temple
A calm, elevated viewpoint overlooking the coastline.
Good for grounding, reflection, or a quiet group moment.
- Travel time: approx 45–75 minutes
- Fits best: Mid-week reflective outing
Beach Afternoon
A spacious, soft outing for groups wanting sun, sand, and saltwater.
Guests can rest, walk, swim, or simply sit with the horizon.
- Travel time: varies by beach
- Fits best: Mid-week or integration day
Nature Walks & Local Trails
There are gentle local walking areas for groups that want to stay connected to the natural pace of the retreat.
- Travel time: 20–40 minutes
- Fits best: Early morning or late afternoon
Sunset Catamaran Trip
A beautiful way to close a retreat week.
Slow sailing, open water, warm light — a grounding and memorable experience.
- Travel time to departure point: ~45 minutes
- Trip duration: 2–3 hours
Keeping Outings Simple
We recommend choosing only one or two outings per week.
Too many activities can dilute the calm and clarity of the retreat environment.
