L'Austral - megayacht with Savoir-vivre

From the balcony of your luxury cabin you can look into the vastness of untouched nature. With its shallow draft, the L'Austral can overcome even narrow passages and the natural wonders seem close enough to touch. You will not forget this overwhelming sight so quickly. Just after the lobster in the main course, your personal butler brought a tarte tatin, a caramelized apple pie, for dessert - divine!

It's like on your own yacht. The French cruise line Ponant wants to convey that feeling to its passengers. The LïAustral uniquely combines the savoir-vivre with exciting expeditions to the most remote corners of the world. Well documented lectures by scientists provide the expert knowledge about the expedition.

The 132 cabins of the LïAustral are spread over six decks. A spa area, a theater, boutiques and bars, family suites and kids club provide entertainment for all tastes. Here one wishes, the cruise would never end.
