The Original Vegan Cruise

Since setting sail in 2004, Holistic Holiday at Sea has earned an international reputation for combining vegan travel with the medicine, nutrition, and activism of the plant-based movement! That’s why National Geographic Traveler named it “One of the 100 Best Worldwide Vacations to Enrich Your Life.”

Make your next vacation healthful, energizing, and meaningful by sailing with Holistic Holiday at Sea. You will enjoy delicious five-course vegan meals prepared by our team of plant-based chefs. Imagine beginning your day embracing yoga and meditation classes in the fresh air and the ocean at your side, then completing your evenings with nightly entertainment and social events.

We offer a lineup of over seventy-five keynote, lectures and workshops led by world-renowned, plant-based leaders, physicians, and coached with expertise in nutrition, fitness, mindfulness and wellness. You will also have the opportunity to connect with like-minded passengers throughout the week!

We know that when it comes to cruises, the journey and destinations are equally important. That’s why the itineraries for our vegan voyages include the most beautiful destinations of the Caribbean Islands. Explore on your own, or experience through a variety of shore excursions that we offer at each port.

Great cruise! A life changing experience. You brought to one venue almost every Whole Food Plant Based expert. My wife and I loved every minute!

– Marc Slavin

More than a cruise to the Caribbean, more than gourmet vegan macrobiotic meals three times a day, more than educational workshops, more than inspirational speakers, the Holistic Holiday at Sea cruise is a voyage to discover the joy of living – a joy so grand that it permeates everyone on board. 

Julia Ferre

It’s an opportunity to expand your knowledge and eat perfectly healthy foods while relaxing in the beautiful Caribbean. It wouldn’t surprise me if you came back from your vacation a different person.

Neal Barnard, M.D.
