Discover the Dalmatian coast drenched with sunlight, between Dubrovnik and Split, with a cultural heritage like no other. Then, farther South, in Corinth or Athens, the Greek Gods will welcome you in their antique palaces draped in marble and bedecked in their most beautiful legends. These same legends will then lead you to the heart of the Cyclades, a string of islands scattered here and there like precious gemstones.

The stunning interior is a panorama of lavender fields, peaceful villages and pine-covered hills. Note: Excursions available at an extra charge.

Magical Mljet would be anyone’s idea of an Adriatic island paradise. With 72% of the island covered by forests and the rest dotted by fields, vineyards and small villages, Mljet casts a spell that can be difficult to break. Created in 1960, Mljet National Park occupies the western third of the island and surrounds two saltwater lakes, Malo Jezero and Veliko Jezero. Dubrovnik is one of the most prominent tourist destinations in the Mediterranean. In 1979, the city of Dubrovnik joined the UNESCO list of World Heritage Sites.

Le Lyrial

Length: 142 metres
Launched 2015

A sleek silhouette, a welcoming intimate atmosphere, discover aboard this new ship the philosophy that has made our sisterships such a success: the spirit of Yacht Cruises.

Sailing under the French flag, this magnificent yacht of only 122 staterooms and Suites, with balconies, will join our fleet in April 2015. You will be enchanted by the contemporary decor inspired by the our destinations and the blue light of the Vega star in the Lyra constellation. The result is a subtle variation around a palette of blues, ranging from the  luminous delicate grey-blue of the Polar ice to splashes of the vivid turquoise blue found in  Mediterranean coves

A refined ambiance is enhanced by the quality of the workmanship and materials: white Corian counters in the lobby contrast with the warmth of leather to recall a boat’s hull, while the central sculpture of enamelled pieces takes its inspiration from the sea. In the loungebar, the carpet picks up a tennis stripe theme symbolising a certain idea of cruising, one synonymous with French elegance and a chic seaside spirit.
