Explora Journeys

Explora Journeys, the newest and most stylish European lifestyle brand, is redefining ocean travel for the ultimate ocean experience. With EXPLORA I and EXPLORA II, the first two of six luxury ships now sailing, and EXPLORA III joining the fleet in August 2026, Explora Journeys is introducing a unique all-inclusive luxury travel experience for those who want to explore differently.

Designed in partnership with the world’s foremost superyacht specialists and harnessing cutting-edge maritime technology, the Explora Journeys’ fleet offers refined yet effortless luxury.

"Explora ships are fundamentally different from traditional cruise lines. They are designed as modern, elegant homes at sea, offering fewer guests, generous space and a sense of freedom and intimacy. Every element, from design and service to our culinary offerings and itineraries, is intentionally curated to deliver a transformative travel experience rather than a conventional cruise. And beyond the physical experience, there’s also a deeper connection to the sea itself that we call the Ocean State of Mind. Our ships are conceived to bring guests closer to the water, its rhythms and its sense of discovery – creating calm, inspiration and openness that stay with you long after the journey ends."

Anna Nash, President, Explora Journeys
