 |
The Lagoon Explorer I & II were the first junks on the Bay which could actually sail! Built for expeditions, you can go to any corner of the Bay.
Whether you are dinning in the restaurant, lounging on the sundeck or relaxing in the comfort of your cabin, you will be surrounded by the handcrafted teak and oak that make the Lagoon Explorer Junks true masterpieces.
Each junk has four cabins, a fine dining restaurant & bar, an outdoor lounge, a swimming platform, well-trained crew, 24 hour electricity supply and a host of activities to make your stay memorable.
