Below you will find examples from our repertoire of countless great experiences.
Fiordland and the South Coast
New Zealand has 15,000 km of coastline to offer, and most of it is so winding that you can only go on unique expedition cruises with small ships. Experience access to remote and inaccessible wilderness areas in the Marlborough Sounds and Fiordland with Coral Adventure, visiting sheltered bays and islands to find fur seals, kakapos and pods of friendly dolphins. Along the way, hike through the Waimangu Volcanic Valley and discover the unique character of East Coast towns, from the French-influenced Akaroa to the Scottish heritage of Dunedin and the charm of the coastal village of Kaikoura.

Ponant & National Geographics Expedition
The sub-Antarctic islands are also called “Galapagos of the Southern Ocean”. Rarely will you find areas as unspoiled and natural as these islands. From famous wildlife sanctuaries to the Te Wahipounamu region, a UNESCO-listed area, you’ll experience extraordinary moments on this cruise. The famous Fiordland National Park, with the well-known fjord Milford Sound and the less spectacular fjords Doubtful Sound and Dusky Sound, should of course not be missed on this trip.

Expedition Ross Sea
Just a few hundred kilometers from the South Pole is the largest marine reserve in the world: the Ross Sea. The Ross Sea is one of the best preserved regions of Antarctica.
Embark on a cruise from Dunedin, New Zealand that calls at this very area on its itinerary. The expedition from New Zealand to the Ross Sea lasts 22 days, during which you can marvel at gigantic icebergs, observe different species of penguins and visit historical sites along the way. On board Le Soléal de Ponant, you will live unique moments and create memories that you will never forget
