A relaxed, reflective program designed for individuals, couples and groups seeking calm, connection, and mindfulness as the island transitions into evening. Before the sun begins to dip, stroll through quiet natural spaces, watch birds settle for the night, and enjoy moments of meditation, gentle reflection, and connection with the island. This ecotherapy program offers a cross-section of arts, culture, and nature, but with a slower pace, giving guests the space to absorb the natural environment, embrace the evening calm, and unwind.

The Quiet Catch Convoy: Each group will need to provide their own vehicles, drivers, and roaming-enabled smartphones. Elissa leads the convoy from location to location, providing occasional live audio commentary throughout. You just follow! Visit our How It Works page for everything you need to know about The Quiet Catch convoy before you book.

Suitable for: Groups of couples, groups of friends, workplaces, and families with older children who enjoy nature and quiet exploration. Not suitable for children 12 and under. For an all-ages program that includes children 12 and under, choose our Island Vibes Discovery Program. Prefer a tailored program or shorter ecotherapy session?
