I’m Sorry. I didn’t get that.
There are times when you want a packed schedule chock-full of activities, and there are times when you just want to sit back, relax and unwind. If you’re looking for the latter, a cruise provides the perfect opportunity to do just that. Envelop yourself in the beautiful blues of the ocean and sky, and literally sail away from it all. Since fully switching off is easier said than done, we’ve put together a list of the top ways to chill out and recharge on a cruise ship.
Chill out on the deck
Lie back on a lounger with the blue sky above, caressed by the sea breeze as you sip a cocktail and enjoy every minute of your well-earned holiday. Bring along that book your friend loaned you ages ago to really get lost in a good story, or pop in your earbuds to enjoy your favourite tunes and podcasts. Bookworms might want to opt for an e-reader to really maximise the number of literary worlds they can escape to ─ bliss.
Take a dip
When it’s time to cool off, ease yourself gently into one of the pools and take in the unique perspective of being in a pool, on a ship, surrounded by the ocean. Whether you feel like doing a few laps, venturing down a gentle slide, enjoying the view from the pool or simply making your way to the swim-up bar, there’s a pool to suit every mood.
Healthy body, healthy mind
A cruise holiday is also the perfect opportunity for some me-time to focus on your own wellbeing. Find balance and strength with classes, up your cardio game on the running track, or take a dip in the pool for some more gentle, low impact exercise. Want to keep your personal trainer happy? Hit the gym at any time. Or, if you’ve got a standing appointment on the basketball courts back home, hit the arena to practise your jump and smash it out the court when you return.
Unwind at the spa
There’s no room for stress on this holiday. Indulge in a variety of spa treatments, each tailored to target specific needs and preferences. Choose an aromatherapy massage to really relax and rebalance your spirit or, if you’re a gym junkie, opt for a deeper massage to restore your tired muscles. With a full menu of treatments available, you’ll find plenty of options to help you achieve blissful revitalisation.
