Are you one of those people that always goes away for Christmas & New Years.

There are so many retreats and vacation destinations open to you in December.

A yoga getaway is inspiring at this time of year, with the freedom that you don't get feeling stuck at home.

So where is in and where is out for December Christmas retreats.

Out is Europe and Bali for sure.

And in with cool retreat vibes are

• Mexico
  Check out Tulum on the Caribbean sea.
  December is a great time to visit as the weather is warm but not too hot.
  The chilled beach vibe make this a perfect vacation spot to get some nice weather with your yoga retreat at Christmas or New Year.
  
  
• Thailand
  The start of the new year is also the start of the good weather. So a great time to plan a retreat here.
  All the islands can be busy at this time of year so there will be lots of yogis around to hang out with.
  Forward planning is a good idea as flights and accommodation can be full.
  If you book last minute the prices can be significantly higher too so a good idea to plan in advance your new year yoga retreat here.
  
  
• Sri Lanka
  With less rainy days Christmas is the prefect time to visit Sri Lanka.
  Lately it has become a mecca of high-end retreat centers offering holistic therapeutic treatments.
  You could return after a Christmas retreat break (or over New Years) feeling refreshed and reinvigorated.
  Plan early as there are not as many hot spots as there are in India, Thailand or Bali.
  
  
• India
  India will always be there, waiting patiently for you to walk on her spiritual land.
  December marks the start of winter with dry and sunny weather.
  Goa is especially popular in December and with New Years yoga retreats.
  
  
• Cambodia
  Nature is vibrant and green and the days are much easier with the lower humidity.
  Siem Reap is a great place to mix with new friends, with lots to do and a nice feel to this small town.
  
  
• Australia
  It can be hot. Very hot. It depends where you are in Australia.
  The coast will always offer sea breezes and swims to cool down.
  If you are in Australia already then there are December & Christmas retreats to check out.
