Five days of healing, connection & community
Kenton-on-Sea, Eastern Cape — June 2025: The seaside village of Kenton-on-Sea is set to host the inaugural Kenton Wellness Festival, from 18–22 June 2025, offering a soul-nourishing blend of wellness practices, expert talks, immersive workshops, and tranquil coastal connection.
Presented by A Taste of Wellness, Eastern Cape, this five-day event invites locals and visitors alike to slow down, reset, and explore a wide spectrum of holistic health approaches in one of South Africa’s most beautiful natural settings.
A holistic journey for mind, body, and soul
Each day begins with movement sessions including Hatha, Vinyasa, Kundalini, and Sculpt Yoga, as well as Pilates. From 9am to 12.30pm, participants can enjoy a carefully curated series of morning talks and presentations from expert wellness practitioners. Ayurveda, sound healing, ozone therapy, somatic yoga and the nervous system, are just a few of the approaches to healing that will be explained.
