L'Austral, launched in 2011, is the second ship in the Boreal Class, offering an identical experience to Le Boréal. Its design emphasizes a chic, contemporary ambiance with a focus on maximizing ocean views. The ship carries 264 passengers and features 132 well-appointed staterooms and suites, all outside-facing with most offering a private balcony. The vessel's small size allows for calls at secluded anchorages and unique itineraries in polar and warm-water regions alike. Guests enjoy open-seating gourmet dining, an open bar, a spa by Sothys, and a team of naturalist guides for expedition sailings. 

L'Austral is perfect for discerning travelers seeking an elegant, small-ship experience with access to the world's most beautiful and remote scenic areas.
