Le Ponant, the three masted sailing vessel of the French expedition cruise line Ponant, is undergoing a transformation to offer guests an exclusive travel experience, the company said in a statement. 

The 1991 built ship of 1,489 gross tons would be entirely refurbished with a sophisticated new design by Jean-Philippe Nuel studio. 

“From June 2022, this legendary sailing ship will set sail again, offering tailor-made itineraries off the beaten track in Greece and Croatia. Sales are now open for 20 departures and 3 new itineraries. On the programme, exclusive ports of call, sublime and wild landscapes, and a series of immersive activities including glass-bottomed kayaking, snorkelling, stand up paddleboarding, cycling and hiking, all in tune with nature,” Poignant said.
