Le Boréal is the first ship in Ponant’s Sisterships series, delivered in 2010. Its name, meaning “northern” in French, reflects the vessel’s association with polar and high‑latitude exploration. Le Boréal introduced Ponant’s modern small‑ship expedition style as the lead ship of the Sisterships, combining French maritime tradition with contemporary design. The vessel has remained active in the fleet, registered in Wallis and Futuna, and continues to operate worldwide itineraries.

Le Boréal, like its Sisterships L’Austral, Le Soléal and Le Lyrial, epitomises the unique feel and atmosphere of the ships of the PONANT fleet. Subtly combining luxury, intimacy and serene well-being, the ship has been designed to offer passengers both moments of conviviality and spaces conducive to peaceful tranquility and a sense of escape and getting away from it all. Its exterior and interior lines testify to the ingeniousness and refinement with which the Sisterships have been designed.
