The line’s intimate three-masted flagship Le Ponant (32
staterooms) provides a private yacht experience in
warmer waters. Under full sail, gliding over the sea with
the wind, you will fall under Le Ponant’s spell.
Whether you are tempted by warm or cold water cruising,
the Caribbean or the Mediterranean, a “Grand” voyage
around South America, a chance to visit the cities of the
Baltic or a music-themed cruise, you are bound to find a
suitable option from the extraordinary variety of cruise
itineraries on offer between the 5 yachts. The new
destinations for 2015 of Alaska and the South Pacific have
been added by Ponant this year as the company extends
its global reach.
