Celebrate Thanksgiving 2026 in True Luxury Aboard Explora III

This Thanksgiving sailing gives you the perfect balance of slow, restorative sea days and vibrant destinations. You’ll have time to unwind into the rhythm of the ship before stepping ashore to explore some of the Caribbean’s most charismatic islands.

Three full sea days set the stage for a relaxing holiday, giving you time to enjoy the spa, take in the ocean views, and settle into the ease that Explora does so well. Thanksgiving Day itself is spent at sea, which means you get the full holiday experience without any of the hosting pressure.

Cruz Bay on St John brings a laid back vibe, clear water, and some of the best beaches in the Virgin Islands. Antigua offers a mix of history, color, and adventure whether you’re into sailing, beaches, or exploring local culture. Terre de Haut in Guadeloupe feels like a postcard come to life, a tiny French Caribbean escape with bright streets and breathtaking views. St Maarten rounds out the journey with a lively port, great shopping, and beaches on both the Dutch and French sides.

Each stop gives you something different, and the pacing makes the entire week feel both refreshing and full of discovery.

Explora III is a brand new luxury ship built for travelers who want space, sophistication, and that private yacht feeling without losing the joy of a full ocean journey.
