Sports at Your Resort

The majority of resorts on San Pedro have a host of onsite activities and sports for their guests.  The convenience of having these options right where you are staying makes it easy to have fun and stay active.  While you might not get a full cardio and weight session out of these sports, they can be a great way to compliment some of the more traditional workouts outlined above.

Bicycles

Hop on a beach cruiser and head off down the beach or on the road to check out the sights.  With a spacious basket on the front, there is room for your beach back and a picnic.

Kayaks

Kayaks are a great way to explore the coast of Ambergris Caye and get an arms and abs workout while you do it.  Grab a partner for a paddle along the island.

SUP Boards

Growing with popularity, Stand-up Paddle Boards are a great core workout.  It also gives you a higher vantage point to watch fish and even stingrays glide under the water.

Volleyball

Whether the net is in the sea, on the beach or in the pool, find some friends and start your own game of volleyball.  Even a casual game will get you moving and having fun at the same time.

Aqua-aerobics at Coco Beach

Join the certified instructor at the adventure pool for weekday 10am aqua-aerobics classes.  This class is for all ages and fitness levels and is conveniently located at Coco Beach Resort. Contact guest services for availability at [email protected].
With all of these ways to stay on your workout routine while on vacation in San Pedro, you are sure to find a great match for your lifestyle.  Vacation can be a fun time to try a new fitness option as well, so take the opportunity to try a CrossFit session or an aerial yoga class.  You just might find a new favorite way to work out!  And don’t forget about a simple walk or run along the beach, just try to avoid the heat of the day.
