Silversea adds new Puerto Williams departure point in Chile

Starting in November, Silversea will debut Puerto Williams, Chile, as its new departure port for Silver Explorer’s expedition cruises to Antarctica.

The addition will see guests travel seamlessly between Santiago and Antarctica, with private flights enhancing their comfort.

Nestled on Isla Navarino in the Beagle Channel at the southern tip of South America, Puerto Williams is a sparsely populated frontier town, surrounded by snow-capped peaks.
