Gymnasium and Fitness Centres

Today's modern cruise ships offer all the health facilities comparable with some of the most well known land-based spa resort hotels. If you want to keep fit whilst onboard and burn off a few calories at the same time there’s plenty of activities to keep you motivated.

Above all, cruising is a fun holiday, and onboard fitness programmes follow that philosophy; the ships' daily newsletters carry a full timetable of activities geared to a range of age groups, and you can join in as few or as many as you like. All activities are included in the price of your cruise with the exception of some specialist group activities depending on you chosen cruise line.  

Gym
State-of-the-art gymnasiums and fitness clubs with huge, sea view windows offer the very latest fitness machines including cardiovascular machines, weight machines, free weights, stair steppers, treadmills and stationary bikes, some with virtual reality "rides" to make working out (almost) a pleasure! If you need a bit of help to get started, you can hire a personal trainer to assess your needs and fitness levels and design an exercise regime geared specifically to you.

Fitness Classes
As well as the more traditional aerobic classes, many ships are now adding specialist programmes like Yoga, T'ai Chi, Boxercise, Pilates and Spinning classes to the line-up, and though there is usually a charge for these to keep numbers manageable, they do provide a great opportunity for passengers to learn the basics before joining a class back home.

Other onboard activities typically include Ball Games (Basketball, Football and Cricket), Golf (Nets and Simulators), Swimming and Jogging Tracks.
