A new wellness-travel partnership between Lindblad Expeditions and Exhale, a lifestyle and fitness brand with health and spa clubs across the country, will kick off with a series of three- and four-day voyages.
The Base Camp Baja voyages will explore Espiritu Santo and Isla Partida, among the top sites within the Sea of Cortez, aboard the 30-cabin National Geographic Sea Bird. There will be seven departures between December and January.
The National Geographic Seabird will serve as a floating "base camp" within the Sea of Cortez.
Through the partnership with Exhale, passengers can indulge in Exhale-branded activities and well-being programs led by an Exhale fitness teacher, spa therapist, or an Exhale-trained Lindblad Wellness specialist. Passengers can take Core Fusion Barre, Bootcamp and HIIT (high intensity interval training) classes, as well as Exhale power yoga classes on deck, stand-up paddleboarding yoga, hikes and assisted stretching. Hour-long neck and shoulder massages will be offered prior to evening cocktails, while Exhale Chill Yoga classes will be offered in the evening alongside group meditation.
Guests can customize each day of the journey, and options include snorkeling with sea lions, exploring the coastline by kayak, stand-up paddle boarding, hiking over black lava and pink volcanic ash, or spending time photographing wildlife with a photography instructor.
Rates begin at $1,990 per person based on double occupancy.
