Explora FX

Explora FX

Discover a new way of kayaking with the Galaxy Explora, the first leisure flipper kayak from Galaxy Kayaks. This kayak was made to take you further and faster thanks to its sleek design and flipper propulsion system. It’s an all-round sit on top kayak that is perfect for going on your next big adventure.

The Galaxy Explora is our newest leisure kayak that brings the comfort and speed of our flipper drive models to everyday kayakers. This model is designed to be used as a versatile kayak: from exploring your local area, to long distance adventures or getting some solid exercise in for the day. 

The Explora is perfect for those of you who are looking to get an awesome leg workout, burning lots of calories, while enjoying nature and having fun. It's the ultimate sport kayak for casual adventurers and people who love the environment.

For those of you interested in fishing please check out our Explora Fisher pack which includes extra fishing accessories to make this an excellent fishing kayak.

The Explora comes with plenty of onboard storage which makes it great for taking gear with you on your trips. There’s a front hatch with access to the hull (perfect for storing your kayak trolley), a middle rectangular storage hatch for storing any items you want to have close at hand (this hatch can also be used as a live-bait well). Then like our other longer models there's plenty of storage available in the rear boot which comes with bungees to tie down any larger items.

With its 325cm length and 80cm width the Galaxy Explora is on the shorter side of our flipper kayaks which makes it very maneuverable. It’s the ideal length for a leisure kayak as it still maintains a good length making it glide along the water faster but not big and bulky to make it hard to transport. 

Another key feature of this leisure kayak is its comfort. The Galaxy Explora comes with our Voyager FX high seat which gives added comfort, and three different levels of height adjustments. This means you are able to spend more time on the water with extra protection from water and a much more comfortable experience.

The Explora differentiates from our other leisure kayaks for its speed. The use of our Ultraline Flippers means this kayak is powered with your legs and the flipper drive system adds increased speed with less effort.

Like all Galaxy Kayaks, the Explora comes fully equipped with our Voyager FX seat and a spare paddle so all you need is a lifejacket, and you are ready for your next adventure!
