Wellness weekends planned for June and October 2025 at Fistral Beach Hotel & Spa

Fistral Beach Hotel and Spa has announced the return of its Yoga & Wild Swim Package for 2025, offering a chance to unwind with a mix of sea dips, guided yoga sessions, spa time, and award-winning dining—all overlooking one of Cornwall’s most iconic beaches.

Set against the dramatic backdrop of Fistral Beach in Newquay, the two-night escape is aimed at anyone looking to reconnect with themselves and nature, whether you’re a regular yogi or completely new to wild swimming.

Weekend Itinerary

Friday evening kicks off the retreat with a gentle Vinyasa yoga session. The one-hour class is focused on linking breath with movement to build strength, improve flexibility and stimulate the vagus nerve—helping guests shift into a more relaxed, balanced state. After the session, guests are invited for a welcome drink at the Bay Bar, followed by a three-course meal in the hotel’s 2 AA Rosette Dune Restaurant.

Saturday morning begins with breakfast and a cold water swimming session led by Cornish Kelpie Open Water Swim Coaching. The experience includes sea safety guidance, confidence building, and tips for handling cold water—all levels are welcome. Guests can wear swimsuits or wetsuits, depending on their comfort level. The session finishes back at the hotel with a warming hot chocolate.

On Saturday evening, the focus turns to relaxation with a one-hour Restorative Candlelight Yoga class. Designed to ease physical and emotional tension—particularly in the shoulders and neck—the session ends with a calming guided meditation. Another nourishing three-course dinner follows at the Dune Restaurant.

Sunday morning brings the final yoga session of the retreat, with a one-hour Dru Yoga class. Combining movement, breathwork, mudras, affirmations, and visualisation, it’s aimed at restoring balance and inner peace. Guests then enjoy a final breakfast overlooking the ocean, with a late checkout at 12pm and continued access to the spa’s Vitality Suite until 6pm.
