The Face of the Waters is a science fiction novel by Robert Silverberg, first published in 1991.

The Face of the Waters takes place in the far future, after the natural destruction of the Earth, when humans only survive as isolated colonies on scattered planets. One of these planets is Hydros, an oceanic planet whose inhabitants live on artificial floating islands.

After a human offense against the natives of Hydros, the human population of the island of Sorve are ordered to leave. Forbidden all other islands, in a flotilla of ships they seek the semi-mythical island of the Face of the Waters.
