Your Under The Sun Playground
Gjipe Beach is a secret cove on Albania’s southern coast — a place so wild, raw, and stupidly beautiful that it drags the gypsy in you straight to the surface. It’s not a retreat. It’s not a resort. It’s a barefoot micro-festival for people who want to disappear for a few days, touch real nature, and remember what it feels like to breathe properly.
There’s no road to the beach. No phone signal. No hotels.
Just a 2.5 km canyon walk, tents under the cliffs, crystal water, sea caves, sunshine, movement, long-table dinners, and the kind of conversations that only happen when everyone’s phones have died.
Welcome to your Under The Sun playground.

WHAT THIS EVENT ACTUALLY IS
Four days on one of the wildest beaches in Europe — a hidden canyon where we live simply, move daily, swim constantly, eat together, and explore everything nature puts in front of us.
Expect:
• access to the Explorations festival happening daily from 12-6:30 from Sat 13-Mon15
• Sunrise dips in water so blue it looks edited
• Daily yoga — with our Bianka Duka holding space
• A long white-pebble beach tucked between two cliffs
• Swimming into sea caves and echo chambers
• Hikes up the canyon and along the cliffs
• Hammocks, shade tents, naps, books, and sun-worship
• Evenings around a long shared table
• Zero signal — but full connection
• Simplicity, chaos, freedom, sunlight, salt, stories
Think:
Somewhere between a holiday and running away from home — but with better food and nicer people.
THE DAILY FLOW (LOOSE, HUMAN, ZERO PRESSURE)
SUNRISE
