Overview

From sea to sea, or from continent to continent, PONANT welcomes you aboard its ships for a Sea Journey. A few times a year we invite sea lovers, dreamers, and keen observers of endless horizons to join our non-stop journeys, to enjoy the comfort of our ships for an extended period and share the daily lives of our crew.

As the days go by, you can admire the waves from the upper deck, keep fit in the spa and make good use of the pool or the gym, share the daily life of the crew, discover sailing techniques and instruments, and enjoy a break from the hectic pace of life.

Cruise Itinerary

Departs: 18:00

The capital of Senegal, Dakar, is an enigmatic and endlessly explorable city. Jutting out on the Cape Vert Peninsula with glorious surf-fringed beaches, the former colonial trading post is the westernmost point of the African continent. Ships will dock at the Mole 1 Terminal in Port de Dakar.

Top Things to Do in Dakar:

  • visit the Museum of Black Civilizations
  • learn about the African slave trade on Goree Island
  • admire the pink Lake Retba
  • shop at the Kermel Market

During your journey at sea, make the most of the many services and activities on board. Treat yourself to a moment of relaxation in the spa or stay in shape in the fitness centre. Depending on the season, let yourself be tempted by the swimming pool or a spot of sunbathing.

This journey without a port of call will also be an opportunity to enjoy the conferences or shows proposed on board, depending on the activities offered, or to do some shopping in the boutique or to meet the Ponant photographers in their dedicated space. As for lovers of the open sea, they will be able to visit the ship’s upper deck to admire the spectacle of the waves and perhaps be lucky enough to observe marine species. A truly enchanted interlude, combining comfort, rest and entertainment.

Arrives: 07:00

Fort-de-France, located on Martinique is the largest city in the French West Indies and it has personality to match. Life here is vibrant and fast-paced, and the culture is as colourful as the brightly painted shops that line the city’s cobblestone streets. Ships will dock at the port.

Top Things to Do in Fort-de-France:

  • visit the Botanical Gardens
  • join a rainforest hike to Absalon
  • visit the Rum Distillery
  • explore a banana plantation
  • see the ruins of Chateau Dubuc
