FROM TOP: © OCEANIA; MICHEL VERDURE Soothe Sailing The wellness revolution has spread to the high seas, from on-deck yoga to destinationspecific spa treatments. AS MORE AND MORE travellers approach wellness practices as a nonnegotiable part of a holistic lifestyle, cruise lines are taking note. Oceania is launching a new facility, Aquamar Spa + Vitality Center, on all six of its ships (oceaniacruises​.com). On the menu: everything from curative Himalayan-salt-stone massages and Dysport facial-wrinkle treatments to destination-focused seminars and tours (reflexology on a rice barge cruising Bangkok’s Chao Phraya River, “apitherapy” presentations at a beekeeping farm in the Andalusian countryside). And come 2022, the company will add a new ship to its fleet with an even more elaborate wellness centre. Regent is introducing Serene Spa & Wellness to its fleet. The onboard treatments often reflect the culture of many of its 450 destinations (rssc.com). The standard mani-pedi, for example, incorporates frangipani oil from the South Pacific, and there’s a heat mask and massage that uses mineral-rich bladderwrack seaweed from the Baltic coast. The onboard hydrothermal suite includes a multisensory aromatherapy steam room, chill room, infrared sauna and experiential showers for pre- or post-treatment. Another wellbeing service that rivals anything you’ll find on land can Left: Oceania’s Aquamar spa; below: yoga on the deck of an AmaWaterways ship be enjoyed aboard AmaWaterways’ AmaDara (amawaterways.com). Offering classes in yoga, Pilates and meditation, the programme is run by dedicated wellness hosts who lead lectures and discussions. The Mekong itineraries, in particular, include destinationspecific options like a traditional tea ceremony or Tai Chi session. Complementing their restorative offerings, all three companies have crafted menus with equally healthcentric, plant-based cuisine. 23 DEPARTURES Additional reporting by Meredith Bethune, Annie Davidson and Michael Joseph Gross
