Star Explorer Overview

Star Explorer

Star Explorer – small-ship discovery with space to unwind
Star Explorer brings Windstar’s relaxed yacht-style cruising into a new chapter, with her first sailing season beginning in December 2026. Purposefully small and all-suite, she is designed for travellers who prefer a more personal way to explore, where the ship feels easy to settle into and the destination always stays close. With just 112 suites, generous ocean-facing spaces and the calm atmosphere Windstar is known for Star Explorer offers a thoughtful alternative to larger resort-style ships.
