Silversea have announced the successful conclusion of its 2025/2026 Antarctica season.
Between October 5 2025 and March 5 2026, Silver Endeavour, Silver Cloud, and Silver Wind welcomed guests on 38 voyages to the region’s landscapes. This comes ahead of the opening of The Cormorant at 55 South, the brand’s 150-room hotel in Puerto Williams.
“Antarctica continues to be one of the most transformative destinations on Earth, offering extraordinary moments of discovery for even the most experienced travellers,” said Bert Hernandez, president, Silversea.
Hernandez continued, “What makes Silversea’s approach truly unique is the variety of ways we invite guests to experience the polar region – whether through our Antarctica Fly Cruises, which offer seamless access for those with limited time, our classic expeditions that include the iconic Drake Passage crossing, or our extended voyages to remote destinations like South Georgia and the Falkland Islands, rich with wildlife and exploration history. With the opening of The Cormorant at 55 South, we are entering an exciting new era in luxury polar travel that makes these journeys even more immersive, comfortable, and accessible.”
With 2026 marking 125 years since Captain Scott’s Discovery expedition left British waters for the Antarctic, there was historical significance to this season’s polar voyages. Silversea’s three expedition ships offered guests flexibility in reaching the southernmost continent, with 20 voyages crossing the legendary Drake Passage and 18 Antarctica Fly Cruise sailings, available to those who preferred to fly directly to King George Island.
