Athens (Piraeus) to Venice (Fusina)
Ten nights link the Aegean and the Adriatic in a high-summer voyage. Silver Nova leaves Piraeus and continues via the Ionian Sea to the harbour pearls of the eastern Adriatic. Personal butler service, premium wines, complimentary Wi-Fi and included gratuities are part of the Silversea standard. Mid-August water temperatures sit around 27 degrees, ideal for swimming days at the pool and in the harbours. The route elegantly bridges two Mediterranean cultural realms.

SAT · 14 Aug 2027Athens (Piraeus) · EmbarkationDeparture 23:00

SUN · 15 Aug 2027MilosArrival 08:00 Departure 19:00
Milos owes its shape to its volcanic past, and the evidence is everywhere: at Sarakiniko, wind and water have polished the rock into a moon-white landscape unlike anywhere else in the Aegean. In 1820 a farmer here unearthed the Aphrodite of Milos, known the world over as the Venus de Milo and now in the Louvre. In the fishing village of Klima the syrmata run down to the water, brightly painted boathouses where the fishing boats once wintered. More than 70 coves, each tinted a different shade of volcanic rock, make Milos the most varied of the Cyclades.

MON · 16 Aug 2027GythionArrival 07:00 Departure 18:00
Gythion (Gythio) on the Mani peninsula of the Peloponnese once served as Sparta's port. The picturesque pastel-coloured houses along the harbour, the islet of Cranae (mythological love nest of Paris and Helen before their flight to Troy) and the Cycladic atmosphere make Gythion an unsung beauty of southern Greece.
