Explorer of the Seas

Discover Explorer of the Seas

Discover Explorer of the Seas, a Voyager Class favourite combining classic Royal Caribbean experiences with plenty of ways to make the most of days at sea. Catch a wave on the FlowRider, race through The Perfect Storm waterslides or challenge yourself on the rock-climbing wall, then slow the pace beside the pool or in the adults-only Solarium. At the heart of the ship, the Royal Promenade brings together shops, bars, restaurants and entertainment.

Evenings can take you from ice-skating performances in Studio B to drinks in the Viking Crown Lounge, while dining includes Chops Grille, Izumi and Giovanni’s Italian Table. Explorer spends winter exploring the Caribbean and Bahamas from Port Canaveral, including itineraries visiting Perfect Day CocoCay, before heading to Europe for a summer season exploring Italy, France, Greece, Croatia and the wider Mediterranean.
