Le Soléal (Ponant)
Le Soléal further reaffirms PONANT's signature approach: taking passengers to the farthest reaches of the planet onboard five-star ships that offer top-of-the-range services. The vessel subtly combines luxury, intimacy, and serene well-being, designed to offer guests moments of both conviviality and peaceful tranquility.
Key characteristics of the ship include:
Design and Ambiance: Le Soléal presents an elegant appearance and a refined interior design, combining them with cutting-edge technology to offer "adventure in a luxury setting." The ingenious and refined exterior and interior lines testify to the design of the sister ships. The overall ambiance is the chic and naturally relaxing atmosphere of a veritable private yacht, achieved through a unique style created by French designers and decorators.
Color Palette: The interior decoration draws inspiration from the tones and colors of its destinations, using a palette of blues that ranges from the soft, luminous grey-like tones of polar ice to the vivid notes and turquoises of Mediterranean inlets and coves.
Capacity: She sails in the polar regions with less than 200 guests.
Cruise Norway Worldwide Expeditions, with 27 years of polar expedition experience, is a preferred travel partner of Ponant. Contact us for the best advice and exclusive pricing.

On Le Ponant, the receptionist will answer all your questions about excursions.
The outdoor areas on our ships, comfortable and conducive to relaxation, have been designed to merge into the sublime scenery and surroundings of the sea and horizon. There is a heated seawater pool featuring its own sun lounge on the top deck of our sister ships (Le Boréal, L’Austral, Le Soléal and Le Lyrial) and on the third deck of the PONANT EXPLORERS (Le Lapérouse, Le Champlain, Le Bougainville, Le Dumont-D’Urville, Le Jacques Cartier and Le Bellot).
