Santikos Collection is thrilled to expand its wellness offering with Moonlight Paddle Boarding, reinventing traditional postures with YOGAqua moon salutations. Offered exclusively to guests of Aegean Suites Hotel and Skiathos Princess Hotel, participants can awaken their senses by performing YOGAqua on the glistening, moonlit waters of Skiathos with stars sparkling overhead - a truly idyllic and unforgettable atmosphere.

Aegean Suites Hotel is a peaceful and exclusive adult-only all-suite property, set on a hillside just outside Skiathos town. A short distance away, alluring sister property Skiathos Princess Hotel overlooks a sandy beach at Agia Paraskevi. Both properties represent a unique element of bohemian luxury, reflected in elegant accommodation, healthy Mediterranean cuisine and extensive wellness activities such as Herb Hikes, Spa Rituals and of course, YOGAqua.

Full Moon & Yoga

Days with a full moon are revered in the Ashtanga yoga tradition due to the understanding that the moon affects tidal rhythms. As humans are made up of 70% water, the moon is said to have a similar effect, amplifying energy levels. This makes the full moon not only a perfect time to practice, but also an incredibly beautiful and memorable atmosphere.

YOGAqua & Full Moon Paddle Boarding

YOGAqua is a natural extension of the timeless practice of yoga, fused with the exciting art of Stand-Up Paddle Boarding (SUP), which takes place on the glistening, warm waters of Skiathos. Offered exclusively to guests staying at the property, YOGAqua has proven hugely popular for its refreshing, exhilarating and toning effects. With yoga taking place on paddle boards on the water (a moving surface), guests perform poses and engage muscles they wouldn’t normally use. Add the breath-taking atmosphere of a moon rising over the water in darkness as well as the spectacular views and sounds of the ocean and you have moonlight paddle boarding. Should guests find it hard to rouse themselves after a dynamic yet relaxing practice, Skiathos Princess Hotel and Aegean Suites Hotel offer a myriad of rooms and suites in close proximity.

Moonlight Paddle Boarding with Santikos Collection will only take place on the following full moon dates:, June 2, July 2, July 31, August 28 & September 28 2015.
