The next opportunity is approaching to learn from many of the world’s leading experts in getting and staying healthy during a one-week Caribbean cruise vacation. A Holistic Holiday at Sea, cited by National Geographic Traveler as “one of the 100 best worldwide vacations to enrich your life,” will depart on its 13th “Voyage to Well-Being” on February 27 next year with 35 teachers, 130 classes, a vegan menu and myriad social events.

Guests may choose from a wide spectrum of classes and workshops ranging from several types of yoga, fitness and meditation to presentations on integrative medicine, plant-based nutrition, ten cooking classes and lectures from a host of luminaries that include Dr. T. Colin Campbell, Dr. Michael Greger, Dr. Neal Barnard and Dr. Michael Klaper. The cruise begins and ends in Miami, with ports of call at St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands; San Juan, Puerto Rico; and Nassau, Bahamas.

The unique concept is the brainchild of Sandy Pukel, who previously conducted health educational programs in Miami for four decades. His first cruise attracted 400 people; more than a decade later, it counts among one of the largest national holistic events, hosting 1,850 like-minded cruisers on each voyage. “This relaxing vacation and educational experience has profoundly changed thousands of lives,” he says.
