Volendam makes keeping fit and healthy easy to do even while away at sea. Contemporary fitness centers, wellness services, and leisure areas have been installed on the ship to help you keep up your healthy habits or just relax. Some of the fitness and health options available include the following.
Located aft on Deck 8, the Fitness Center is a well-stocked and newly outfitted gym featuring free weights, resistance machines, ellipticals, stationary bikes, treadmills, rowing machines, and spin bikes. Floor-to-ceiling glass walls allow those exercising to gaze out at the ocean. Staffed and equipped to offer both instructed classes and self-led workouts, it opens daily from 06:00 until 21:00.
Several classes are offered, some free and others charging a modest fee of USD 12–20 per session. Circuit training, yoga, Pilates, TRX, indoor cycling/spin, morning stretch, fab abs, mat Pilates, guided meditation, and aqua-aerobics are a few of the options. Personal trainers are also available for one-on-one sessions.
With a jogging track (12 laps equal just about a mile) and sport courts for basketball, pickleball, tennis-volleyball, shuffleboard, table tennis, and even giant chess, the Sports Deck (Deck 9 aft) provides open-air fitness opportunities for guests.
Thermal suites containing heated loungers, steam room, sauna, hydro pool, aroma-stone therapy, and treatment rooms await you at the Greenhouse Spa & Salon on Deck 8 for rest and rejuvenation. Salon services such as facials, manicures, and pedicures are also available. Spa services and thermal suite access are available for an additional fee.
