Three ships in the Ponant fleet will operate voyages in Antarctica as part of the luxury line’s new Yacht Cruises & Expeditions guide released late last week.
Covering the period from Sep 2015 to Apr 2016, the season will see L’Austral, Le Boreal & newest ship Le Lyrial in the region, sailing 14 departures of four itineraries.
Guests will be able to visit South Georgia and the Antarctic Peninsula between Nov 2015 and Feb 2016, with multiple outings aboard a fleet of Zodiac vessels.
Other highlights in the season include a greater presence in the South Pacific, with new voyages in Hawaii, New Caledonia and French Polynesia, visiting the Solomon Islands & Easter Island.
New South America and Amazon cruises also feature in the guide.
