Explora Journeys, the luxury cruise line owned by MSC, has announced that newest ship Explora II will serve as a floating hotel for the Monaco Grand Prix in 2025.

The ship will remain docked in Monaco’s Port Hercule through the whole race week, just 150 metres from the racetrack.
Not only will guests onboard be able to enjoy amazing views of the race, but they’ll also get to enjoy a series of events themed around the race itself.
The ship will be located at the end of the harbour, in an exclusive location past the F1 Paddock.
Guests on the ship will be able to register for the Paddock Club, which allows access to VIP hospitality suite along with offering gourmet dining options, premium bars, and access to the pit lane walk along with appearances by drivers and other team personnel.
Bookings for the experience include grandstand tickets, and are available for guests to book now. Guests can then register their interest in the F1 Paddock Club via the official Explora Journeys website.
Explora II launches in September 2024 as the second ship in the Explora Journeys fleet. She has 461 suites onboard along with 5 pools and 6 restaurants, with a guest-to-host ratio of just 1.25:1.
Guests can expect incredible dining experiences, beautiful public areas in which to unwind, sumptuous accommodations and a wealth of enrichment features, including an award-winning spa.
