Those who have been on a cruise before know that it’s an all-out marathon of eating, drinking, and then eating and drinking some more. There’s no way around it. While I write this I’m currently staring at a plethora of free pastries tempting me at Cafe Promenade onboard the brand new Wonder of the Seas, Royal Caribbean’s newest Oasis Class ship.
Since my job has had me cruising far more than the average individual, I’ve had to learn portion control, when to skip dessert, and to take advantage of as many of the fitness activities the cruise has to offer. For the latter, I was pleasantly surprised by all that was offered on Wonder of the Seas for their guests.
Here are a few of the wellness/fitness activities I found most interesting when scrolling through the Royal Caribbean app:
- Morning Stretch – Join us to awaken your body with an energizing stretch to start your day off right.
- Guided Meditation – Slow the world down with a tranquil meditation session that can reduce stress and improve concentration.

These are just a few of the options presented to guests while cruising, and as you can see, they have something for everyone. The moral of the story, there are plenty of ways to keep you feeling good in between your many meals and cocktails, no matter the age of the Royal Caribbean ship you’re on.
Even with this inspirational fitness and wellness post while cruising on a Royal Caribbean ship – whether it’s a seasoned vessel or a recent addition to the fleet – I know some of you still like to see the food photos. If that’s you, then might I suggest you take a look at my food on Wonder of the Seas article where I showcase a few of my favorite dining experiences while sailing on the Wonder of the Seas inaugural this month.
