Kate converted me to sailing, and, as a wellness aficionado, I found myself seeking out those that embraced the trend of spas becoming ever more exciting aboard these cities at sea. Things have extended far beyond the usual swimming pool and massage, you see, and now it is a thing among forward-thinking cruise brands to offer experts in alternative therapies alongside various grooming options, and a range of exercise classes and disciplines. Most add in salubrious restaurants and have incorporated the sense of wellness into the very design itself, which makes sense, given that few things calm ruffled nerves like the sight and smell of the ocean.
