Most Croatian islands have beaches. Silba has something much harder to find. Silence. No cars are allowed here, and after just a few hours on the island, you start to understand why locals want to keep it that way. In this episode of Beyond the Buoys, we explore hidden corners of Silba, climb its famous Toreta tower and discover what makes this tiny Adriatic island feel completely different from the rest of Croatia.
Citizen science forms a key part of our voyages, with guests contributing to global citizen science initiatives while travelling through remote and biodiverse regions. Each expedition features activities from our Science & Education programme, encouraging a deeper understanding of the places we explore. One of the projects highlighted is the Phytoplankton Monitoring Network, a NOAA-led initiative in North America that relies on volunteers to monitor phytoplankton communities and support the early detection of harmful algal blooms (HABs). In 2024, a sample collected aboard an HX vessel revealed elevated levels of a phytoplankton species of concern, later confirmed by NOAA and communicated to coastal communities. Citizen science continues to play an important role in expanding knowledge of marine ecosystems and supporting long‑term environmental research. Since 1896, HX has led mindful expeditions to some of the world’s most extraordinary places. 130 years on, we continue that legacy, taking curious adventurers to iconic destinations such as Greenland, Antarctica, and the Galápagos Islands aboard our modern expedition ships.
