Ponant’s Subantarctic Islands cruises take travellers on an extraordinary expedition to one of the most remote regions on Earth.

These pristine ecosystems, largely untouched by human activity, offer a rare glimpse into nature in its purest form, with opportunities for guided Zodiac excursions and expert-led wildlife encounters.
Aboard Le Soléal, guests enjoy an intimate luxury expedition experience, with elegant accommodations and fine dining. These cruises are an opportunity to witness one of the last great wildernesses on the planet. Whether exploring Macquarie Island, the Snares, or the Auckland and Campbell Islands, Ponant’s Subantarctic cruises provide a deeply immersive and awe-inspiring expedition into the wildest corners of the Southern Ocean.
