About Ponant

Created in 1988 by a former Captain who is still in charge of the company, Ponant is the only French registered cruise line and is an integral part of France's great maritime history. Aboard those 5-star cruises, you will feel the "French Touch" in the design and décor, but also in the service and gastronomy, with a fully bilingual French-English crew.

From the ice of Antarctica (world leader in Polar cruises) to the lagoons of the Pacific, from Mediterranean coves to Asian shores, Ponant has been sailing all the seas of the world for almost thirty years on a luxury fleet, the most modern in the world, with intimate ships of from 32 to 132 cabins.

Innovation is an important part of Ponant as each of their new four 92-cabin Ponant Explorers (see “Downloads”), have “Blue Eye”, the first multi-sensory underwater lounge in the World (see below “Latest Youtube Video from Ponant”).
