While exploring the Caribbean’s most enchanting destinations, guests will celebrate aboard their seasonally decorated ocean home. Days will unspool with exquisite festive feasts and gala dinners, delightful rituals like the crafting of gingerbread houses, and ocean-inspired wellness experiences focusing on gratitude and intention setting. Ushered in by mesmerising sunsets, long warm evenings will promise live music, mixology masterclasses and holiday movie nights beneath the stars – all interspersed with unforgettable moments at sea and ashore.

EXPLORA I and EXPLORA II’s festive itineraries range from seven to 17 nights in duration, with destination ports including Charlotte Amalie, the charming capital of St. Thomas. Here, morning swims in turquoise Magen’s Bay segue into market browsing and afternoons exploring historical landmarks. At Terre-de-Haut (Les Saintes, Guadeloupe), a picture-perfect village of bougainvillea-lined lanes and pastel houses awaits, while in Bridgetown (Barbados), vibrant street life and colonial architecture blend with a rich rum heritage and laid-back beach culture. Boulangeries line leafy boulevards in Fort-de-France (Martinique), and in Basseterre (St. Kitts and Nevis), guests can wander through Georgian streets or opt for volcano hikes and reef kayaking. Every port offers its own unique blend of natural beauty, adventure, and cultural heritage.

Whether anchored in San Juan for a dazzling display of fireworks or raising a glass mid-ocean, every destination will become part of a unique story, woven into the season’s joy. With Explora Journeys, the holidays are never a countdown: they’re a quiet unfolding – of presence, peace, and discovery – instilling the sought-after Ocean State of Mind.

At every destination, Explora Journeys provides inspiring opportunities for guests to discover authentic cultural, historic and culinary delights.
