Welcome aboard Le Ponant
With her sleek lines, her decks extending along the full length
of her 88 metres, her three masts reaching for the sky and her
sails ready to take flight, Le Ponant captivates all who sail on
her. There is no need to be an experienced sailor to embark on
board this beauty. While passengers do not participate in the
manoeuvres, the crew are always delighted to answer any of your
questions. As on a private yacht, you will sail with a small group
(64 passengers) of people who really love being at sea.
Following in the nautical tradition of three-masted sailing ships,
Le Ponant will take you on a voyage of discovery. The ship capacity
provides intimacy and convivial atmosphere to the cruise. The
refined life on board, the welcoming charm of your cabin, the
lounges and the restaurants setting are all invitations to
relax.
Under full sail, gliding over the sea with the wind, you will fall
under Le Ponant's spell.
Tasteful sophistication favouring life in the open air is the
philosophy of Le Ponant.
The ship has plenty of space including a large comfortable
lounge, two restaurants one with a terrace, and a vast sun deck
from which to admire the 1500 m² of sail. There is also a platform
just above sea level from which you can gaze at the marine life
below or enjoy the water sports*.
The public rooms are flexible and able to receive all the
passengers at once for conferences, presentations, or work
sessions. Enjoy meeting people in the Emeraude Lounge, relaxing in
the Saphir Lounge, having a walk on the Sun Deck.
Le Ponant offer Discreet yet attentive
service.
Of course tribute is paid to the great French gastronomic
tradition, accompanied by a selection of red, white and rosé wines
free of charge during meals. A fine vintage wine list is also
available.
At lunchtime a delicious buffet is served on the terrace, while
evening menus are more elaborate in the refined décor of the
Karukéra Restaurant where you dine at the table of your choice.
Later in the bar, a pianist entertains guests.
The Diamant Restaurant and the Panoramic Restaurant offer a high
quality cuisine and can host 67 guests. Both are widely open to the
sea.
