LE PONANT: Mythical destinations and hidden ports of call only accessible to small-capacity yachts. The signature style of the 62-guest Le Ponant includes French-style cuisine in a welcoming and intimate environment, and discreet yet attentive service where no detail is overlooked.
LE BOREAL: Like her four sisterships, Le Boréal embodies the subtle alliance between luxury, intimacy and well-being which is PONANT’s signature. The elegance of her exterior and interior lines and her smaller size (only 132 staterooms and suites, accommodating 264 guests) make this a rare and innovative yacht.
L’AUSTRAL: In May 2011, L’Austral joined PONANT’s fleet. This superb ship with 132 staterooms accommodating 264 guests is the result of the expertise of the Italian Fincantieri shipyard and French sophistication, as interpreted by designer Jean-Philippe Nuel.
LE LYRIAL: Fourth ship in this superb series loyal to the PONANT spirit, Le Lyrial like her sisterships is the embodiment of luxury and well-being. She features an elegant exterior and interior line with intimate size (only 122 staterooms and suites, accommodating 244 guests).
LE SOLEAL: Designed in 2013 and loyal to the PONANT spirit, Le Soléal also embodies Ponant’s signature luxury, intimacy and well-being. An elegant exterior and interior line with only 122 staterooms and suites, she accommodates 264 guests.
LE CHAMPLAIN, LE LAPEROUSE, LE BOUGAINVILLE, LE DUMONT-D’URVILLE, LE BELLOT, LE SURVILLE: Featuring innovative and environmentally friendly equipment, elegantly designed staterooms, spacious suites with large windows, and lounge areas that open onto the outside, this new limited-capacity yacht boasting just 92 staterooms and suites, accommodating 184 guests offers a truly unique cruise experience.
