The Silver Explorer, a purpose-built expedition ship with the intimate onboard ambience of a private yacht, has been designed specifically for navigating waters in some of the world's most remote destinations, including both of earth's polar regions. With a fleet of Zodiac boats, her 132 guests can visit even the most off-the-beaten path locations while an expert Expedition Team provides insight and understanding. Amenities include ocean-view staterooms with private bath, a spacious library with an Internet café, a full-service spa, beauty salon, fitness center, live evening entertainment, and two top-deck whirlpools. A strengthened hull with a Lloyd's Register ice-class notation (1A) for passenger vessels enables Silver Explorer to push through ice floes with ease.
