Silversea Kicks Off Its 33-Voyage Caribbean Season 2025/26


Silversea has kicked off its 2025/26 Caribbean and Central America season, with Silver Shadow departing on the first of 33 curated voyages in the region through March 5, 2025. Four of Silversea’s intimate ships will host guests on sailings that range from seven to 21 days. Enjoying immersive experiences, including authentic culinary experiences through the S.A.L.T. (Sea and Land Taste) culinary program, guests will discover 32 destinations in 19 countries, including smaller ports that larger ships cannot access, such as Little Bay in Montserrat and Les Saintes in Guadeloupe.

With four ships journeying throughout the Caribbean and Central America in the 2025/26 season, guests can choose from multiple sailings on Silversea’s newest Nova Class ship, Silver Ray or Silver Spirit and Silver Shadow—as well as one voyage on board Silver Dawn. Ashore, guests can explore the region’s majestic landscapes and serene beaches, coupled with the unique charm and heritage of the diverse islands that dot the Caribbean Sea. Here are a few highlights of the upcoming Caribbean and Central America voyages:

  • Silver Ray (Roundtrip Fort Lauderdale, December 2–12, 2025) – Silver Ray will embark on its first Caribbean voyage of the season in early December—the ideal time for a tranquil escape. This 10-day Eastern Caribbean voyage seamlessly blends cultures, scenic beauty, and pristine beaches during calls in San Juan; St. John, the U.S. Virgin Islands; Gustavia, St. Barth’s; St. Kitts (Basseterre); and Road Town, Tortola. Days at sea allow time for relaxation and onboard discovery with S.A.L.T. cooking classes showcasing the multi-cultural flavors of the region.
  • Silver Ray (Roundtrip Fort Lauderdale, January 27–February 6, 2026) – This 10-day voyage offers the perfect balance of two serene sea days at the start and end of the voyage, with immersive destination exploration on offer in San Juan, St. John, St. Barth’s, St. Kitts and Nevis, as well as Spanish Town in the British Virgin Islands, home to the stunning Virgin Gorda and Savannah Bay’s white-sand beach. Whether exploring Devil’s Bay National Park with its geothermal pools and boulders, Gorda Peak’s grottos and pools, or The Baths at Spring Bay, guests will find enrichment, relaxation, and joy in the region’s stunning natural beauty.
  • Silver Spirit (Roundtrip Bridgetown, December 8–15 & December 15–22, 2025) – Silver Spirit begins its Caribbean season with two seven-day roundtrip Barbados sailings in December. Visiting seven ports in seven days, guests will enjoy easy access to the jewels of the Caribbean, from St. Lucia, Martinique, and St. Barth’s to Dominica, Grenada, and St. Vincent and the Grenadines. Each island comes alive with vibrant flora, verdant peaks, peaceful waterfalls, and lush interiors juxtaposed with colorful Caribbean markets and towns with picturesque European facades. In St. Lucia, guests can visit a banana plantation, admire soaring waterfalls by safari jeep, and take to two wheels on a biking adventure. Culinary experiences in St. Barth’s include wine and cheese tasting at the exclusive Barons de Rothschild’s Lounge (the only one of its kind outside France), and a cooking class and beach day at the stunning Rosewood Guanahani. Guests can choose to explore the underwater world surrounding St. Barth’s on a semi-submersible boat, or go deep-sea fishing, snorkeling or sailing, then end the day on a sunset catamaran cruise around Gustavia Harbor.
  • Silver Shadow (Bridgetown to Phillipsburg, February 12-19, 2026) – There is no better way to celebrate Valentine’s week than on board Silver Shadow’s seven-day voyage from Barbados to Sint Maarten, with eight ports to discover, including Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, U.S. Virgin Islands, Antigua and Barbuda, St. Barth’s, Dominica and the charming commune of Trois Ilets in Martinique with its historic French culture. New shore experiences include “A Taste of Martinique” which visits Trois Rivières distillery, known for its traditional AOC rhum, followed by a cooking class and tasting of French-West Indian aperitifs with one of the finest chefs in Martinique. Nature lovers can discover the mangrove forest by kayak or boat; or join a snorkeling adventure at Anse-Dufour, a charming beach and fishing village, and the bat cave. A private S.A.L.T. cooking class featuring a French-Creole menu at La Suite Villa, a luxurious boutique hotel nestled in the hills of Trois-Ilets, guided by French Chef Julien Fournet, whose refined cuisine is rooted in local flavors, elevated with global influences, is another highlight. In Rouseau, Dominica, guests will discover beaches fizzing with fine bubbles from the geothermal activity below.
  • Silver Shadow (Roundtrip Phillipsburg, February 19–26, 2026) – On a seven-day roundtrip sailing from Sint Maarten in the Netherlands Antilles, guests can journey to St. John’s, Antigua and Barbuda, St. Thomas, Monserrat, St. Lucia, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, and Guadeloupe. This magnificent archipelago reveals a necklace of islands in unspoiled Caribbean glory, waiting to be explored by kayak or catamaran, snorkeling amidst teeming reefs, hiking scenic peaks, or strolling along a serene stretch of soft-sanded beach. In Guadeloupe, those feeling active can hike Mount Morel or take a boat ride to snorkel among tropical fish in Les Saintes Bay.
