Going on a cruise used to be about guilty pleasures: eating and drinking too much, and doing as little as possible. While cruises come in many shapes and sizes, the latest cruise ships and trips offer plenty of healthy options, such as fitness classes, luxe spa treatments, and gourmet dishes.

Health and fitness are very important to many cruisers, and cruise lines are supplying guests with ample opportunities to stay active throughout your journey. Onshore, go hiking or cycling with a sports guide or expert naturalist, paddle a kayak under an ancient Roman aqueduct, or borrow a bike and explore on your own.

Onboard, get your heart pumping in our well-equipped fitness center or take an exercise class with an onboard wellness coach.
