About Silver Wind
Silver Wind is a small luxury expedition ship operated by Silversea Cruises. Built in 1995, she was refurbished in 2018 and underwent a major 2021 conversion that strengthened her hull for ice-class operations. The ship accommodates 274 guests in 149 suites supported by 239 crew. Her intimate scale, butler service, ocean-view accommodations, and expedition equipment make her suited to polar and remote-region voyages while retaining Silversea’s upscale dining, lounges, wellness facilities, and relaxed onboard atmosphere.
