Across Australia
The Silver Nova began its Australian adventure in Darwin, where it sailed across the continent’s northern edge, stopping at Port Douglas and Cairns. It continues its journey to key cities, including Brisbane, Melbourne, and Adelaide, offering passengers a glimpse of Australia’s diverse and stunning coastline. From Adelaide, the ship is set to sail back to Sydney, continue to Tasmania, and eventually explore New Zealand, showcasing the very best of the Southern Hemisphere.
A New Benchmark in Luxury Cruising
With the capacity to carry up to 728 passengers, Silver Nova, along with its sister ship Silver Ray, stands as the largest vessel in Silversea’s fleet. Its design breaks away from conventional luxury cruise aesthetics with an asymmetrical structure that offers expansive, open views, enhancing the connection between guests and the surrounding seascapes. This innovative design allows for a spacious pool deck, unobstructed sightlines, and a seamless flow between indoor and outdoor spaces, creating an immersive oceanic experience.
Culinary Excellence on Board
The arrival of Silver Nova also brings Silversea’s renowned culinary program, S.A.L.T. (Sea and Land Taste), to Australian waters. This programme highlights local cuisines and ingredients, reflecting the heritage of each destination. In Darwin, passengers are treated to Darwin laksa, a local favourite known for its rich, spicy flavours, showcasing the region’s vibrant culinary culture.
