Here at Neilson Beach Clubs, we live and breathe activity; it's who we are. With over 25 carefully curated activities across 7 Beach Club locations, we've seen first-hand how travel and fitness are becoming intrinsically intertwined – a connection we're passionate about. We're not just witnessing this trend; we're living it, day in and day out, alongside our guests.
This year's report delves into the increasingly intertwined world of travel and fitness, exploring how travellers prioritise their wellbeing while seeking thrilling experiences. While all-inclusive resorts and multi-generational trips remain popular, we've identified 5 key travel fitness trends that will shape the way we travel in 2025, focusing on the experiences and memories that truly matter. Consider this report your ultimate travel companion, guiding you to destinations with activity and positive energy.
“A simple change of scenery can inspire you and the family to find time for fitness and relaxation whilst on holiday. This might be a moonlit run on the beach, a sunrise walk with the family, a first attempt at water skiing or a yoga class to destress after a day of sightseeing.”
The most significant trend identified is the rise of getaways specifically designed to boost mental wellbeing and disconnect from the digital world. In a society increasingly tethered to screens, Neilson recognises the profound value of a holiday that encourages genuine connection and mindful exploration. Whether it's the adrenaline rush of exhilarating activities or the simple joy of rediscovering childlike wonder, Neilson Beach Clubs facilitate those hard-to-find moments of pure escapism, revitalising mental health and breaking free from daily routines.
“Limiting screen time also means kids can get stuck into new activities such as rock climbing or water skiing through our inclusive kids’ clubs. It’s all about finding a balance that works for you, leaving time to soak up the local culture and enjoy the physical and mental health benefits of an active holiday.”
More than just a collection of trends, this report is an indispensable guide for anyone seeking adventure and wellbeing in 2025. At Neilson Beach Clubs, we are dedicated to understanding and anticipating consumer preferences. By constantly analysing needs and behaviours, we ensure every Neilson experience is meticulously crafted to deliver lasting memories. Consider this report your trusted companion on the journey to your perfect active holiday.
