At Eastern Point, you can experience a range of retreats from a single day of prayer to the Spiritual Exercises of St Ignatius of Loyola for 30 days. The majority of our retreats are 8 days and offer you the opportunity to indulge yourself in the peace, serenity and magnificent natural beauty of our surroundings. One of the hallmarks of a retreat at Eastern Point is the silence that enables you to hear the sounds of the ocean as well as the voice of God throughout creation. For most retreats, you are offered the services of an experienced spiritual director who will accompany you during these days of silence and contemplation.
