Sail Aboard Silver Nova in 2023

04 May 2022

Silver Nova is the eleventh ship to join the Silversea fleet and will join them in summer 2023 offering a home-away-from-home for 728 guests. With one of the highest space to guest ratios in the industry, you’ll have ample room to unwind on board as you take in the innovative new design of this immersive vessel. What’s more, the ship has incorporated a number of new technologies to help minimise her impact on the environment.

Suites

With 13 categories of suite available on board, Silver Nova will offer the widest collection of suites of any Silversea vessel. These luxurious accommodations will pay homage to the cruise line’s hallmark Italian heritage with their opulent furnishings and expert craftsmanship.

With floor-to-ceiling windows and a private glass balustrade balcony in all suites, you’ll enjoy an unmatched connection with the sea and your destinations as you soak up the views in comfort.

A New Attitude to Travel

Longer time spent in port and overnight stopovers allow you to truly immerse yourself in each destination that you visit, taking in the best of local life and embarking on port-intensive itineraries to help you experience the traditions, culture and cuisine that make each location unique.

There will also be the option to elevate your experience further with fantastic shore excursions and even pre- and post-cruise stays.

Responsible Cruising

Silver Nova represents a real step forward for Silversea in their efforts to reduce their environmental footprint. As well as encompassing technologies that reduce emissions at sea, she will be the first hybrid, luxury cruise ship to be free of emissions while in port thanks to being able to use power produced by the fuel cell system to sustain the ship in port.
