Breathe in the Breeze, Find Your Flow!



Heading to the Bolivar Peninsula, this year's Body, Mind & Spirits Hangout at Camp Margaritaville Resort Crystal Beach will turn the Texas coast into a hub for wellness and community. Fill your days with guided yoga & meditations, sound healing, shorebirds, bay paddling, and practical workshop sessions like essential oils and Ayurveda. Nights center on gathering around the fire, a vegan potluck, and open RV tours.






Mindful Movement at Margaritaville

Yoga Instructor Sharon McGrail

Rejuvenate Your Body, Calm Your Mind

Whether you're a seasoned yogi or a beginner, this Hangout is the perfect opportunity to deepen your practice while connecting with nature. Start your days with a guided morning practice, then enjoy a variety of active or relaxing pursuits throughout the day. Escapees Yogi Instructor Sharon McGrail will lead your classes, with a variety of styles and interactions. From a sunset stretch on the beach, Morning flow, Gentle mobility yoga, Hatha & Yin Yoga, and possibly some Pilates and Aqua Aerobics. This is an opportunity to gather with RVers who already, or aspire to self-care in body & mind and wish to maintain or lift their positive spirits...or perhaps raise a glass of spirits!

Camp Margaritaville

Quiet Beaches, Cool Breezes

Camp Margaritaville enjoys a direct walkway to the oceanfront, so dip your toes in the ocean or enjoy some poolside bliss as the Licensed to Chill pool stays heated year-round, with large social hot tubs and a swim-up bar! The beach will offer morning meditation walks, a bike ride along the sandy shores, shorebird viewing, ocean paddling your kayak, or in the quieter Galveston Bay.

Sound Bowls

Sound, Scent, Stones, and Self-Care

Reset your energy through hands-on workshops on essential oils, crystals, and Ayurveda, and a group sound bath session, gaining practical self-care rituals to elevate your yoga practice on and off the mat. You'll walk away with sensory tools to nourish your mind and body long after the Hangout ends. Galveston Holistic Wellness massage therapists will come to camp to provide onsite 30 minute & one hour table massages (additional charge). Workshops & sound bath will all be on-site as well.

RVers gathered around a campfire

Community, Connection & Campfire Nights

Gather to connect, share meals, and swap stories throughout the week. We'll fuel you up with a catered breakfast and a dinner to give you some respite from the kitchen, discover new ideas during a Vegan Potluck and share RV improvements during an open Rig Tour. Swap practical advice during the Club Talk and RV Tips & Tricks session, then wind down under the stars around your fire pits with new friends. Photo Credit: Jim Hubbard SKP#142230

Hop a Ferry to Galveston

Take a quick ferry ride across the bay and step into the vibrant, historic charm of Galveston Island. Whether you’re looking to sip locally crafted spirits or hunt for unique coastal treasures, an afternoon on the island may be well spent. Enjoy a custom cocktail at Galveston Distilling, or a locally brewed craft beer at Naked Iguana Brewery. Walk along Victorian-era streets for a unique souvenir or seek out taffy or hand-dipped chocolates at La Kings Confectionery. Enjoy a stroll along Seawall Boulevard or simply try to spot dolphins and shrimp boats from Pier 21. Photo credit: visitgalveston.com
