The best luxury charter yachts for fitness and wellness in 2022

Fitness goals needn't be a chore when chartering a yacht: from on board gyms and cryo saunas to massage therapies and ice fountains, a wellness-focused charter offers a far more appealing way to work out than your home gym set-up. We take a look at some of the best luxury yachts available to charter right now that are perfect for self-care fans and fitness fanatics...

Wheels

With nearly 2,000GT of internal space spread across seven decks, 75.5 metre Wheels has ample space on board for exceptional wellness and fitness amenities. On-the-water workouts can take place in the fully-equipped and air-conditioned gym, while almost half of the lower deck is dedicated to an impressive toybox equipped for water sports.

What really makes the wellness experience stand out on board Wheels, however, is the specially trained crew. Her 21 crew members include qualified yoga and fitness instructors as well as experts in water sports such as wakeboarding, kitesurfing, catamaran sailing and diving who are on hand to help whether you want to simply stay fit and active during your charter or are keen to learn a new skill. After a day on the water, unwind with a treatment from the onboard masseuse or a dip in the spa pool followed by a movie night in the private cinema.

Wheels is managed for charter by Fraser with a weekly charter rate starting from $840,000.

Available to cruise in The Bahamian islands, 42.1 metre charter yacht TCB offers a curated “wellness retreat” itinerary for charter guests that focuses on health and wellbeing, incorporating fitness and physical therapy with nutritional health and relaxation. Days are begun with an early morning workout or yoga session led by the on board fitness guru, followed by freshly squeezed juices and smoothies for a nutritional breakfast. Each day guests will have a fleet of toys at their disposal for practising water sports like waterskiing and wakeboarding, or for less-octane activities, kayaking, paddleboarding, fishing and snorkelling. Guests will also have an opportunity to spend time stretching their sea legs on land, with beach walks and open-air massages to outings on local golf courses. After an active day, unwind in the hot tub and enjoy a healthy meal inspired by local Bahamian cuisine and tailored to your dietary requests.

TCB is managed for charter by Worth Avenue with a weekly rate of $130,000.
