Explora I swimming pools and whirlpools
If you enjoy sunbathing by a pool then Explora I is the ship for you. In fact, there are four swimming pools on board with one dedicated to adults only.
The Conservatory Pool is large enough to swim laps and it has a retractable roof to let the sunshine in. The infinity-edge Astern Pool has astounding views. Upstairs, the Atoll Pool is perfect for a refreshing dip.
On the open decks there are lots of whirlpool hot tubs, most of which have panoramic views.
The Spa
The spa on Explora I has a unique philosophy called Ocean Wellness. It is based on a series of experiences designed to encourage a journey of inner discovery and rejuvenation.
The signature treatment embraces this ethos with breath work and visualisation, coupled with full body massage and facial lymphatic drainage. On the other hand, there are also traditional massage and beauty treatments for those with a more conventional nature.
The spa also boasts a thalassotherapy pool as well as a steam room, a sauna and heated relaxation loungers. Best of all you don’t need to have a treatment to use them.
Explora I gym
Explora I has two excellent gym studios; one indoor and the other outdoor. Both have an large collection of TechnoGym workout machines, however free weights are only available at the indoor gym.
Also, you can hire a personal trainer for your workout, private yoga session or pilates training.
Explora I sports
I really liked the jogging track on Explora I. It runs right around the top deck. Seven laps is 1.6 km. / 1.0 mi.
On the open decks there are also basketball and pickleball courts.
