Some ppl have found water, so exploring water is a valid occurence. You will know it is water once youve made an attempt, and if dont resolve you can opt to juat go in another direction.

Juan if we are at the border of the map or at an sea zone and explore in that direction could you make us explore the closest province that is available instead? Otherwise this is a big handycap for players placed at the sides or sea zones.
Now where is the fun in that? :D

But unless no-one really has encountered such obstacles already, it would be unfair to change, no?

Related question, am I correct in assuming there is no way to know what type the explore-adventure is before actually starting it? Or can I use an contingency go explore south, if it's Hunt adventure, scout east instead?
Pfft...try being on an island...not that I am or anything...

If your on an island with 3 sea zones you might have to do 3 explorations before you hit another province if there is any at all. That would be the worst start ever I guess.

There is no island that is 3 provinces away from another. But there are almost certainly islands adjacent to 3 sea zones...

But is that not a huge handicap for if a player to starts on an island? You have to build a longship firsts before you can settle on other islands or the mainland.

No, you can settle across waterways without a naval unit. You just cannot move military units. Settlers can raft across, hah.

Think about it the other way too, it is basically impossible to invade a person on islands, until later in the game.
