Explora Journeys is unveiling new itineraries for winter 2026-27.

Sailing between October 2026 and May 2026, the cruises will be offered aboard Explora I, Explora II and Explora III.

Explora I will spend the winter in the Caribbean, as well as Central and South America—including journeys deep into the heart of the Amazon.

Explora II will explore the Arabian Peninsula while sailing the Red Sea. And the line’s newest ship, Explora III, will sail around the Caribbean and Central America before transiting the Panama Canal and exploring the Pacific coast of North America.

Travelers can also celebrate New Year’s Eve with fireworks on all three ships: Explora I and Explora III will be in San Juan Bay, Puerto Rico, and Explora II will be in the Arabian Gulf near Dubai.
