Le Ponant, the luxury three-masted sailing yacht is ready to sail under the French flag in the Indian Ocean for the winter season 2022-23.

Driven by the trade winds, the yacht will sail to the most beautiful places in the Seychelles archipelago, a tropical paradise where wild fauna and flora meet the blue ocean and white beaches.

For the first time, guests on Ponant will be able to discover places that are as unique as they are secret, such as the African banks north of the Amirantes Islands and the island of Teresa, two new additions to the yacht’s itinerary. These islands are uninhabited white sand pearls that have survived the hand of man, which offer postcard views and a dip in unspoiled nature.

When guests are not intent on exploring the beauty of nature on land, the company offers a wide range of full immersion activities to best experience the essence of the Seychelles: snorkeling, scuba diving, freediving initiation, sunrise yoga and at sunset, meditation, paddle-boarding or kayaking are only part of the services offered by the experts on board.

The experience inside the elegant and refined yacht is sophisticated and regenerating. The small number of guests and the attentive service of the crew contribute to creating an exclusive environment and an intimate atmosphere. In addition, Le Ponant has been transformed to offer guests a travel experience that takes into account the environmental impact and eco-sustainability.

It is also possible to book for the day before the cruise, a magical night under the stars in an eco-lodge nestled in the desert dunes of the Arabian Peninsula, the perfect way to start a journey dedicated to naturalistic exploration. By getting into the true spirit of the destination, guests will be able to connect to the biodiversity of the Seychelles and awaken their senses like never before.
