Ponant Explorers
LA COMPAGNIE DU PONANT
The six "Ponant Explorers" are distinguished by their uniqueness: boats whose size allows for exclusive anchorages and with an ethnic-inspired, less formal decoration that combines luxury and nature. Nevertheless, each boat is part of the global identity of the "Ponant" brand, a luxury combining a contemporary universe and a maritime spirit, a sober luxury and a search for elegance expressing a French art of living.

The Ponant Explorer range is a high-end vessel inspired by private yachts. The interior design has an ethnic dimension that is not related to a specific region of the world, but is inspired by a common vocabulary, synonymous with casual, non-ostentatious luxury.
