Discover the dining, entertainment, and relaxation spaces that make every moment on board unforgettable.

To provide exceptional culinary experiences at sea is the challenge taken up by the company's chefs, accompanied by the teams of Alain Ducasse and Ducasse Conseil during each journey. An invitation to extend the exploration.

Exceptional tables

Intimate atmosphere or panoramic views, fine dining is making its way to the sea. On board Le Commandant Charcot, book your table at Nuna, the only Alain Ducasse restaurant at sea.

Tastings

Caviar from Maison Kaviari, Pata Negra from Berman Ibéricos, macarons from Pierre Hermé, butter and cheeses from Bordier, olive oil from Château Virant, Valrhona chocolate, pastries and bread prepared on board, gourmet afternoon tea, culinary demonstrations... every day, let yourself be surprised by gourmet moments.

The Nuna, the one and only Alain Ducasse restaurant at sea, offers an excellent menu specially designed by the Michelin-starred chef, featuring some of his signature dishes.

Ligne Roset furniture, French Bernardaud porcelain and Elne glassware bring elegance and refinement to your à la carte breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

In a more relaxed atmosphere, a bright 320 m² restaurant welcomes you for your breakfast, buffet lunches and themed dinners.

At the outdoor bar, a varied and refined selection of sweet and savoury international cuisine, as well as a permanent menu, are available throughout the day (11am–6pm).

Whether you want to fully enjoy your cabin for breakfast, savor a peaceful snack in the middle of the day, or have your meal in complete privacy, room service is at your disposal. Treat yourself to a moment of indulgence and enjoy a diverse menu available at any time of day and night.
