Like Silver Nova, our second Nova-class ship, Silver Ray, is a guiding light for the future of luxury travel, reflecting Silversea’s vision to connect you more closely with the world. Both class-leading vessels are icons of innovation, designed with glorious outdoor spaces and glassy interiors that celebrate openness and light. As you gaze through panoramic windows or wander expansive decks, you’ll feel the space between you and the outside simply melt away—you might sometimes forget you’re on a ship at all. More than a means of travel, Nova-class is a destination in itself.
Wherever you wish to go, both our Nova-class ships, Silver Ray and Silver Nova, will transform your idea of luxury travel—changing your perspective on the places you’ve dreamed of seeing. Their open design will connect you seamlessly with the authentic beauty of each region you visit with expansive glass facades, transparent elevators, panoramic lounges and sweeping terraces. Each ship features our unique culinary program S.A.L.T. (Sea And Land Taste), which brings the flavors of your destination on board, and the most personalized service at sea.
Only Silversea adds S.A.L.T. (Sea And Land Taste), exploring places through their cuisine. On Nova Class, you can meet local producers on the French Riviera and have lunch at Mirazur, one of the best restaurants; savor a Sicilian feast and explore local markets; enjoy a rustic lunch in the Alaskan wilderness with fish you have caught yourself; and revel in modern Colombian cuisine.
Guided by destination experts, you can experience an authentic Geisha performance with Japanese dinner in Kyoto; visit the UNESCO site Gyeongju in Korea, known as “the museum without walls”; see the history and daily life of people in a traditional Berber Takrouna village; and witness the medieval beauty, grandeur and legacy of Livorno’s Castagneto Castle.
Embrace your sense of adventure during an exhilarating flightseeing tour, glacier hike, or packrafting excursion to Juneau’s Norris Glacier; experience Alaska’s breathtaking natural beauty by helicopter or on a dog sledding excursion; go rafting along the Petrohué River; marvel at the spectacular ancient forests, waterfalls, mountains and volcanoes; and so much more.
Experience blissful relaxation and leisurely discoveries. Savor a cocktail in the soothing warmth while watching a breathtaking sunset over Rio; feel the buzz at Carnival Parade Stadium; marvel at Guanabara Palace; stretch out on Botafogo Beach; summit Sugarloaf Mountain; or step behind the curtain of Sydney Opera House for a private backstage tour.
Explore Kakadu National Park by boat to marvel at the landscape, abundant wildlife and waterfalls; fly over the Great Ocean Road and stunning Twelve Apostles for thrilling panoramic views; uncover El Yunque Rainforest, Angelito Trail and Coca Falls in Puerto Rico; or discover Tasmania’s nocturnal animals during an exclusive early evening sightseeing tour.
