Overview:
EXPLORA offers a refined interpretation of modern luxury, where thoughtful design enhances every moment at sea against the backdrop of southern Italy. Built on the proven platform of the Azimut Fly 82, she delivers generous interior volumes, privacy, and a strong connection to the surrounding environment. Her exterior lines by Alberto Mancini appear fluid and balanced, while expansive windows frame panoramic views that shift from Sicily’s rugged coastline to the volcanic silhouettes of the Aeolian Islands. Designed for up to 8 guests, EXPLORA feels both intimate and open.

Outdoor living on EXPLORA is shaped around ease and connection to the sea. The foredeck offers a relaxed space for sunbathing as island coastlines drift by, while the aft deck naturally becomes the heart of life on board for shared meals and quiet moments at anchor. From here, the yacht opens directly onto the water, creating a generous waterside area where guests can swim, lounge, and stay close to the sea throughout the day. Above, the flybridge provides comfortable seating and wide views, making it a favorite spot as afternoons fade into golden island evenings.

EXPLORA’s interiors by Fabio Fantolino combine architectural confidence with warmth. Premium materials, subtle textures, and refined detailing create a salon that supports both lively gatherings after a day ashore and quiet downtime as the yacht glides between islands. Guest cabins include a full beam Master cabin, a VIP cabin, a Double cabin, and a Twin cabin with two single beds, each offering private ensuite facilities, soft lighting, and elegant finishes designed for rest and privacy.

The final evenings on board unfold gently, marked by calm anchorages and the slow rhythm of island nights. Stabilizers provide smooth conditions both underway and at anchor, allowing comfort to remain uninterrupted until departure. Supported by a professional crew of four, guests disembark with a sense of ease and satisfaction, carrying memories shaped by Sicily’s character, the Aeolian Islands’ atmosphere, and the understated elegance of life on board EXPLORA.
