Recognition that truly resonates. We are pleased to share that Explora Journeys has been named among the Travel + Leisure 2025 World’s Best Awards - a distinction that reflects our growing desire to create a more meaningful way to travel at sea. Since our launch, we have aimed to go beyond the expected - to create journeys that inspire a deeper connection with the world, with oneself, and with the art of luxury Ocean travel itself. To those who have journeyed with us, supported us, and believed in this vision - thank you. #ExploraJourneys #OceanStateOfMind #SailUnique

It takes more than steel to build a ship. It takes vision, devotion, and countless hands working in harmony. From the first sparks of steel to the moment a ship touches water, every step is a tribute to the men and women who shape our fleet with care and craftsmanship. Yesterday at the FINCANTIERI shipyard in Genoa, Italy, we honoured them - marking the float out of EXPLORA III, the coin ceremony of EXPLORA IV, and the steel cutting of EXPLORA V. A heartfelt thank you to all those who bring our Journeys to life. #ExploraJourneys #OceanStateOfMind #SailUnique

Three ships, one vision: A celebration of craft and purpose At the FINCANTIERI shipyard in Genoa, Italy, we celebrated three deeply symbolic milestones: the float out of EXPLORA III, the coin ceremony of EXPLORA IV, and the steel cutting of EXPLORA V. These moments represent far more than construction progress – they reflect the passion, precision, and shared vision driving our commitment to reimagining luxury ocean travel. This triple ceremony unites tradition and innovation, and honours the many hands and hearts shaping our growing fleet. As our President Anna Nash shared, “We are not just building ships – we are taking the helm as we redefine what ocean travel can be. We are creating a legacy of transformative journeys that will endure for generations to come.” Photo Credit: Ivan Sarfatti #ExploraJourneys #OceanStateOfMind #SailUnique

On board EXPLORA II, our culinary team is breaking new ground. With the vision of our Head of Culinary, Franck Garanger, and his commitment to nurturing diverse talent, we are proud to have more than 20 women across our kitchens - from Anthology to our signature dining experiences - representing over 10 nationalities and bringing with them exceptional expertise from five-star hotels and luxury cruise lines. This isn’t a headline, it’s a reflection of what excellence truly looks like. From Chef de Partie to Executive Sous Chef, these professionals are helping to shape our onboard culinary experience with precision, creativity, and skill. At Explora Journeys, we don’t highlight women in leadership to make a statement. We do so because they are raising the standard for what refined hospitality at sea can be. #ExploraJourneys #OceanStateOfMind #SailUnique

This month in Madrid, we brought together our worlds of luxury hospitality and advanced skincare to celebrate a shared vision of wellbeing. In collaboration with Dr. LEVY Switzerland, we introduced LEVYTATION: A MEDI-LUXE EXPERIENCE - a 90-minute facial that blends Swiss stem cell-based innovation with aesthetic techniques inspired by Dr. Phillip Levy’s renowned Medi-Luxe® protocol. Launching in June 2025, the treatment will be available onboard EXPLORA I and EXPLORA II, as well as at TACHA Beauty in Madrid and Marbella. Thoughtfully designed to deliver visible results from the very first session, it reflects our commitment to transformative wellness, both at sea and ashore. #ExploraJourneys #OceanStateOfMind #SailUnique

Honouring Culinary Excellence and French Artistry At Explora Journeys, we believe true luxury is found in the thoughtful details - and few reflect this philosophy more profoundly than our Head of Culinary, Franck Garanger. We are delighted to share that Franck has been appointed Chevalier of the Ordre du Mérite Agricole by the French Ministry of Agriculture and Food Sovereignty. This esteemed national honour recognises his lifelong dedication to the culinary arts and his unwavering commitment to preserving and promoting the rich heritage of French gastronomy. With a career spanning several decades and continents, Franck brings to our ships not only world-class expertise but also an authentic reverence for provenance, seasonality, and the artisans behind every ingredient. His vision shapes our approach to cuisine at sea - elevated and deeply rooted in storytelling. Please join us in congratulating Franck on this well-deserved recognition - a proud milestone for him, and for all of us at Explora Journeys. #ExploraJourneys #OceanStateOfMind #SailUnique
