Explora I sets Monaco Grand Prix stay for 2027
Explora Journeys plans to position the ship at Port Hercule for three days, 150 metres from the circuit.

Explora Journeys has unveiled plans for Explora I to dock at Monaco’s Port Hercule for three days beginning June 2, 2027. The company said the berth would be 150 metres from the Monaco Grand Prix circuit. The visit would be the ship’s third consecutive year in the region for the event.
Suites packaged with three-day Grandstand access have sold out, though interested guests can register with the cruise line. Suites with three-day Paddock Club hospitality are due to be released later, and prices have not been disclosed.
Guests could pair the race weekend with a Rome-to-Monaco sailing running from May 24 to June 7, continue from Monaco to Barcelona between June 2 and June 14, or combine both voyages.
MSC Cruises has also been announced as the title sponsor of the Belgian, Turkish and Portuguese Grands Prix for 2027.
Separately, Iglu Cruise is offering a package with return flights from the UK, an all-inclusive Mediterranean cruise aboard Azamara Onward and a Monaco Grand Prix experience. The five-night cruise itinerary includes Palamos and an overnight stay in Nice.
