Monsoon Season Retreats in Goa
This monsoon season, Purple Valley welcomes yogis and travellers to our beautiful retreat centre in Goa.
Come and experience the centre and its surroundings during the calmer, quieter season while you journey deeper into your yoga and meditation practice.
Benefits of Monsoon Season
If you ask a long-term resident of Goa to pick their favourite time of year, they’re likely to pick the monsoon season. The rainy months offer travellers a rich and unique experience – one that’s free from crazy crowds, aggressive traffic and loud all-night parties. Goa in the monsoons is calm and restful with beautiful waterfalls, quiet Indian villages and lush spice plantations.
Co-working
We know it can be hard to get away from work. Our comfortable terrace area is the perfect working space equipped with a fast internet connection. Here you can enjoy a good coffee and tasty, simple meals while getting busy emptying your inbox. We also have 3 simple conference rooms, offering you privacy to conduct your digital meetings.
Yoga
Purple Valley works only with experienced and competent teachers so you can be sure to receive insightful guidance to deepen your yoga practice. This monsoon season we’re open from June 1 to October 15, offering both drop-in classes and short weekend workshops.

The Location
Over the last few years, Assagao – the small village where we’re located – has witnessed many old homes being converted into cosy restaurants, boutiques and cafes. You don’t have to walk far from Purple Valley for a specialty coffee, authentic Indian meal or artisanal handicrafts.
For over two decades, we’ve worked to create a space that nourishes a deep and authentic yogic lifestyle. The quiet calm of the monsoons will offer you the perfect opportunity to cultivate your daily sadhana in asana, meditation and pranayama, while you enjoy nourishing food at the centre and explore the quiet surroundings of our village.
