Natural wonders and cultural jewels of Dalmatia with Ponant L'Austal

7 nights
Departing 8th August 2025 from Venice

THEATRE WORKSHOP: Give your children the unique opportunity to dive into the fascinating world of theatre through four workshops, led by the talented actresses from THEATRE DU JEU DE PAUME, Daphnée de Morant and Marguerite Pinatel. At the end of the cruise, the children will proudly present their theatrical creations, offering a moment of sharing rich in emotions. The workshop is accessible upon prior registration and is limited to a maximum of 10 children per age group (9-13 years and 4-8 years), to ensure optimal supervision. Pre-registration required (subject to availability).

For French-speaking passengers, the actresses will take you on a captivating and playful theatrical journey with two performances in French.

This cruise, in partnership with the Maud Fontenoy Foundation, will cultivate the art of peaceful travel as well as a family spirit, thanks to its customised activities on board and on shore for youngsters*, with the Kid Explorers Club.  

Set off to discover the Mediterranean on a 8-day cruise : valleys planted with olive trees, national parks featuring striking beauty, and paved old towns evoking a turbulent history.

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, enjoy a truffle hunt followed by a tasting, from Rovinj, discover Hvar in a Volkswagen Beetle or attend a Moreška performance at the Korcula open-air theatre. The diversity of experiences on offer promises you intense and varied moments (to discover the full range of excursions, go to the itinerary tab).

Venice the Serenissima has spread remnants of its centuries-long reign along the shores of the Adriatic. On the Balbi's Arch in Rovinj and on the doors of the towns of Zadar or Korcula, the winged lion, symbol of the City of the Doges, still watches over passers-by. From ancient times, Split has kept the Roman Diocletian's Palace (UNESCO) and its Cathedral of Saint Domnius while the island of Hvar conserves Stari Grad, founded by the Greeks and considered to be the country’s oldest town.

The Bay of Kotor combines the beauty of spectacular nature with the jewels of the region’s history. Its medieval city, designated a UNESCO, will unveil itself in the crook of the cliffs that overhang the jutting sound, creating a labyrinthine sailing route.

The Pearl of the Adriatic, the former maritime republic known as Ragusa, concludes this journey through time, unveiling a new face among the many facets of Dalmatia. Dubrovnik’s slogan is “Freedom is not for sale, not even for all the gold of this world.”
