Silversea announced that the ship Silver Discoverer will be deployed in the Indian Ocean as of October 2018 for several Inter-Island voyages.
Silversea ships are popular for their smaller size and discerning travellers who wish for stylish discovery. The Indian Ocean Region has enlarged the range of its offerings due to the new announcement.
Silver Discoverer is able to enter shallow waters and cruise close to the islands. The ship carries 12 Zodiacs and a glass-bottom boat.
