Many people see a vacation as a time to lounge, eat and drink a lot. While that is an ideal vacation it's possible to do all of that, plus get in some leisurely exercise to get and stay fit.
Most hotels offer activities for guests. I went on an hour bike tour that showed me beautiful places that I wouldn't be able to get to on my own. We travelled at an easy enough pace for inexperienced cyclists but it was still challenging enough for a great workout.
Hotels offer a variety of water aerobics, guided walks, yoga and meditation plus a lot more activities to keep you entertained and healthy. Participating in an activity in the morning is a great way to start the day to enjoy guilt free lounging for rest of your stay.
Walking is underestimated for how great it makes you feel. Checking out new places and shopping all day will keep you on your feet burning calories. It's such an amazing feeling to arrive back in the evening with great new purchases and feeling your body worked out all at once.
Of course there is the swimming and water activities like surfing, boating and snorkeling. All of these activities are fun and great for health and well being.
Fitness doesn't have to mean being in the gym all of the time. It's possible (and encouraged) to find activities you enjoy to keep your results progressing and your mind interested.
