T-Minus One Year Until Silver Moon Launch

It’s now less than one year until the launch of Silver Moon – an elegant new addition to Silversea’s ultra-luxury fleet of ships.

Embarking on its inaugural voyage on Aug. 6, 2020, the 596-guest Silver Moon will “echo the whispered elegance of the cruise line’s current flagship, Silver Muse, while bringing unprecedented enhancements and elements of innovation.”

Adding to Silversea’s characteristic hallmarks of luxury, Silver Moon will push the boundaries of travel with a pioneering new culinary program, S.A.L.T. (Sea and Land Taste), which will adapt according to the visited destination to unlock immersive culinary experiences for guests. Elevating the role of food as a means to travel deeper into a destination, S.A.L.T. will showcase entire ecosystems around culinary cultures of the world through onboard and shore-based experiences.

As part of the S.A.L.T. Program, three new venues will unlock immersive culinary experiences for guests on Silver Moon, forming a hub of culinary discovery on Deck 4: one of eight restaurants aboard Silver Moon, S.A.L.T. Kitchen will be the first large-scale regional restaurant on board a luxury cruise ship, offering an ever-changing menu and a regionally inspired wine list; S.A.L.T. Lab will enable guests to learn about local ingredients and artisanal techniques, through insightful workshops, tastings, and demonstrations; and S.A.L.T. Bar will allow guests to sample the most authentic flavours of the destination, through a large selection of regional wines, spirits and other drinks.

Also positioned on Deck 4, popular restaurants Atlantide and Kaiseki will each undergo an extensive redesign when compared to Silver Muse. Aboard Silver Moon, Atlantide will be enlarged to accommodate up to 230 guests. Minimalist yet sophisticated, the enhanced design of Kaiseki will take inspiration from the best sushi restaurants in the world.

Silver Moon will also feature enhanced lounges and public spaces. At the heart of the ship on Deck 5, the Dolce Vita lounge will benefit from a new layout, in which the bar will be repositioned to the centre of the venue. Dolce Vita will welcome guests as both a sophisticated bar during the daytime and as a piano bar by night.

Positioned on Deck 9, the Connoisseur’s Corner will also be entirely re-imagined aboard Silver Moon.

And, in addition to an enhanced pool deck – which will feature steps into the ship’s swimming pool and an enlarged, U-shaped bar area with additional seating – Silver Moon will offer guests the enjoyment of a redesigned Spa and Fitness Centre. The space will incorporate both indoor and outdoor areas, comprising a large thermal area, relaxation area and gym. Other signature venues will include the Panorama Lounge, the Observation Library, the Venetian Lounge and the Casino.

Silver Moon will complete her inaugural voyage between Aug. 6 and Aug. 17, 2020, travelling from Trieste to Rome (Civitavecchia).
