HERE'S HOW YOUR RETREAT WITH
sail & soul works.
Every retreat creates a unique setting for personal development. Psychologically informed coaching, sailing, physical activity, tranquillity and personal reflection come together to create an extraordinary experience at sea.
Whether you choose an individually tailored Private Retreat or a selected Open Retreat – from your initial inquiry to the integration of new perspectives into everyday life, we accompany you personally, professionally, and with the utmost discretion.

Psychologically informed coaching combines evidence-based psychological knowledge with a solution-focused and resource-oriented approach. The focus is on your personal goals, strengths and opportunities for development. It supports personal growth and change but does not constitute psychotherapy or the treatment of mental health conditions.
Our retreats are intentionally limited to a maximum of six guests. This ensures sufficient time and space for personal guidance, individual coaching sessions, and intensive group work.
Yes. You can book a Private Retreat exclusively for yourself or join one of our Open Retreats as a solo traveller.
The duration of our retreats depends on the destination and your individual needs. Most retreats last between 5 and 10 days, providing sufficient time for relaxation, psychologically informed coaching, and meaningful personal development. Individual formats and longer retreats are also available upon request.
From the Baltic Sea and IJsselmeer to the Mediterranean and more distant destinations such as the Seychelles, Thailand, or the Caribbean, a variety of sailing areas are possible. For Private Retreats, we select the destination together with you; Open Retreats take place in the destinations specified for each retreat.
For Private Retreats, the destination, dates, and overall setting are tailored to you individually. For Open Retreats, the dates, sailing area, and focus are predetermined. In both formats, the daily schedule on board remains flexible and takes into account the weather, safety, and the needs of the group.
