Le Commandant Charcot

Le Commandant-Charcot, the world's first PC2 icebreaker-class LNG gas-electric hybrid polar luxury expedition cruise ship powered by liquefied natural gas, is a revolutionary work by Ponant based on its 20 years of polar operation experience and dedicated to responsible polar travel. Thanks to its outstanding design of zero emissions, zero pollution and zero interference with the polar environment, Le Commandant-Charcot can lead guests directly to the geographic North Pole, go deep into the Bellingshausen Sea to track emperor penguins, visit Peter the Great Island, where fewer people have landed than on the moon, and explore ecologically sensitive niche secrets such as the Ross Sea.
