Onboard onto L'Austral for an exquisite journey

Discover the most beautiful landscapes of the Icelandic coast during a 10-day PONANT cruise. On the edge of the Arctic, between vast glaciers, vertiginous fjords, volcanoes and boiling geysers, this circumnavigation will enable you to discover the wild and romantic landscapes of Iceland. 

Throughout your journey, you will benefit from an excursion included per person per port of call, to choose from a selection offered by PONANT. During this cruise, explore the spellbinding Snaefellsnes Peninsula from Grundarfjördur, discover the three sites of the Icelandic “Golden Circle” (Thingvellir, the “golden falls” of Gullfoss, and Geysir) from Reykjavik, or appreciate the tranquillity of Geothermal Sea Baths and the grandeur of the Godafoss waterfalls from Akureyri. The diversity of experiences on offer promises you intense and varied moments (to discover the full range of excursions, go to the itinerary tab).

Departing from Reykjavík, you will set off aboard L’Austral, heading for Heimaey, the only inhabited island in the Westman archipelago. It is an exceptional place composed of volcanoes and almost-desert landscapes, where fishing is the main food source.

You will explore Djúpivogur, a picturesque village on Iceland’s East coast surrounded by majestic mountains and located in the heart of the Berufjörður fjord. Between its craggy coastlines and black sandy beaches, appreciate the stunning views of this region that will also appeal to bird lovers.

Akureyri, the capital of north Iceland, will welcome you on the shores of the Eyafjörður fjord, very close to the Arctic Circle.

After visiting the village of Ísafjörður, you will then set sail for the bay of Grundarfjörður, right near Kirkjufell. This stunning cone-shaped mountain possesses a unique charm and this will be an opportunity to take some beautiful photos.

Finally you will reach Reykjavík, the most northerly capital in the world.
