Le Boréal

Why cruise on this ship?

A superb mega-yacht with 132 cabins, she is the fruit of the expertise of the Italian Fincantieri shipyard and French sophistication, as interpreted by designer Jean-Philippe Nuel. Le Boreal remains faithful to Ponant's philosophy - to create a unique atmosphere, a subtle blend of luxury, intimacy and well-being.
