Explora Journeys is gearing up for the launch of its newest ship, EXPLORA III.
The vessel, which is slated to debut August 3, will sail from Barcelona to Lisbon, through Northern Europe and Iceland, before crossing the Atlantic via Greenland to North America.
A highlight of the season is the solar eclipse voyage on August 12.
From now through May 26, guests can enjoy savings of up to $2,000 per suite on select summer 2026 sailings.
"This sailing season is a uniquely rich moment in time where multiple dimensions of luxury travel come together," says Anna Nash, president of Explora Journeys. “From witnessing the cinematic beauty of a solar eclipse alongside world-class luminaries who bring science and adventure to life, to the profound serenity found in a more soulful navigation of the North, every element has been aligned to create a deeper connection with the world around us."
"It is a natural expression of our Ocean State of Mind, offering the space, stillness and time to truly absorb it all," Nash concluded.
