The cruise company is offering the chance to discover or rediscover a unique heritage by sea aboard its ships, which include the latest additions to its PONANT EXPLORERS series, Le Bougainville and Le Dumont -d’Urville.
Maiden season for two ships in the PONANT EXPLORERS series: Le Bougainville and Le Dumont -d’Urville
The summer 2019 season shines the spotlight on Le Bougainville and Le Dumont -d’Urville. These exceptional new-generation ships in the PONANT EXPLORERS series combine a smaller capacity (92 staterooms) and respect for
the environment (Cleanship label awarded by Bureau Veritas). Equipped with a removable marina platform
enabling guests to swim and engage in other activities directly from the ship, as well as a submersible mini -port
providing easy access to a number of nautical activities (kayaking, paddle boarding, water skiing and more), these
new stars of the fleet also boast a multi-sensory underwater lounge called Blue Eye, offering guests a new experience of the subaquatic world.
