Set to launch in August 2026, Explora III is the debut vessel of Explora Journeys' new Evolution Class, physically larger than her sister ships, with more high end suite categories and new dining venues, and the first in the fleet to be powered by LNG. Onboard, the new Shore Club restaurant brings a relaxed dining experience in the style of a beach club, inspired by carefree days by the sea, while The Chef's Table offers an exclusive dining experience crafted in collaboration with the ship's culinary team. Wine lovers will find their own retreat in The Cellar, an unpretentious space built around curiosity, easy conversation, and genuine enjoyment, alongside signature culinary concepts paired with fresh, unexpected offerings, and guests can even browse Chopard's first boutique at sea.
Outdoors, generous deck space delivers spectacular sea views, complemented by multiple pools and whirlpools spread across the ship's promenade decks. Wellness takes center stage in the reimagined Ocean Wellness and Fitness space, an ocean inspired retreat crafted to soothe and rejuvenate. Families are equally well catered for, with enhanced Nautilus Club spaces designed separately for juniors and teens. Paramount Cruises

Entertainment has also been reimagined, with thoughtfully curated programming designed to engage the mind and nourish the soul throughout the journey. Explora III's maiden voyage sails from Barcelona to Lisbon, kicking off an inaugural season through Northern Europe, Iceland, Greenland, and North America.
