Experience Watersports at The BodyHoliday
When people think of a wellness resort, they often picture yoga classes, spa treatments, and healthy cuisine. While those experiences certainly play an important role at The BodyHoliday, wellness can also be found in movement, adventure, and the simple joy of spending time in the water.
Set along the golden sands of Cariblue Beach on Saint Lucia’s north coast, The BodyHoliday offers an extensive watersports programme designed to help guests stay active, try something new, and experience the Caribbean Sea from a completely different perspective. Whether you’re an experienced sailor, a first-time paddleboarder, or someone looking to earn a diving certification while on holiday, there’s an activity waiting for you.
Why Watersports Are Part of Wellness
Wellness isn’t one-size-fits-all. For some, it’s a morning meditation session. For others, it’s the exhilaration of catching the wind in a sail or exploring vibrant coral reefs beneath the surface.
Watersports combine physical activity with the restorative benefits of being outdoors. The sea has a natural ability to calm the mind while energizing the body, making it the perfect environment for both adventure and relaxation. At The BodyHoliday, guests can enjoy a wide variety of complimentary and specialized watersports throughout their stay, creating the ideal balance between excitement and wellbeing.
Windsurf Across the Caribbean Sea
Arguably the most challenging watersport offered at The BodyHoliday, windsurfing combines sailing and surfing into one exhilarating activity. Powered by the Caribbean breeze, it’s a fantastic way to improve balance, coordination, and core strength while enjoying spectacular views of Saint Lucia’s coastline.
Whether you’re learning the basics or refining your technique, the calm waters of Cariblue Beach provide an excellent setting to get out on the water and experience the thrill of windsurfing.
Feel the Rush of Waterskiing and Tubing
For guests looking for a little more adrenaline, waterskiing and tubing offer plenty of excitement.
Gliding across the water on skis is an unforgettable experience that challenges your balance and coordination while delivering an incredible sense of accomplishment. Tubing, meanwhile, is all about fun. Hold on as you’re pulled across the sparkling Caribbean Sea, bouncing over the waves and sharing plenty of laughs along the way.
These activities provide an energetic contrast to the more restorative elements of a wellness holiday, proving that wellness can be exciting too.
Discover the Underwater World Through Snorkeling
Some of Saint Lucia’s most beautiful sights lie beneath the surface.
Snorkeling allows guests to explore crystal-clear waters teeming with tropical marine life. Colorful fish, fascinating coral formations, and the tranquil underwater environment create an entirely different perspective on the island’s natural beauty.
It’s an accessible activity suitable for all experience levels and one of the most rewarding ways to connect with the Caribbean Sea.
Become PADI Certified with Scuba Diving
For those looking to take their underwater adventures even further, scuba diving opens the door to a remarkable world below the waves.
The BodyHoliday offers guests the opportunity to learn to dive and even earn internationally recognized PADI certification during their stay. Under the guidance of qualified instructors, beginners can complete training courses while experienced divers can continue exploring Saint Lucia’s renowned dive sites.
Few holiday experiences are as memorable as taking your first breaths underwater and discovering the incredible marine ecosystems that surround the island.
Learn to Sail with ASA-Accredited Instruction
The BodyHoliday is proud to offer sailing opportunities through its ASA-accredited sailing program.
Guests can learn the fundamentals of sailing from experienced instructors while developing skills that can stay with them long after their holiday ends. Whether you choose a traditional sailboat or the ever-popular Hobie Cat, sailing provides a unique combination of relaxation, strategy, and adventure.
Harness the power of the wind, navigate the Caribbean waters, and enjoy a sense of freedom that can only be found at sea.
Explore the Coastline by Paddleboard or Kayak
For a more relaxed way to experience the Caribbean Sea, paddleboarding and kayaking offer the perfect opportunity to slow down and take in the beauty of Saint Lucia’s coastline.
Stand-up paddleboarding provides a gentle full-body workout while encouraging balance, focus, and mindfulness as you glide across calm waters. Kayaking offers a similarly rewarding experience, allowing you to explore at your own pace while enjoying stunning views of the island from the water.
Whether you’re standing atop a paddleboard or settling into a kayak, these activities offer a peaceful connection to the sea and a unique perspective of the surrounding landscape. It’s an ideal way to combine movement, exploration, and relaxation as part of your wellness journey.
