SS Sinaia was an ocean liner built in 1924 in Whiteinch, Glasgow by Barclay, Curle & Co. Ltd.for the Fabre Line.[2][1] Its first visit to Providence, Rhode Island, was made on June 28, 1925.[1]

The liner carried Kahlil Gibran's body from Providence, Rhode Island, to Lebanon in 1931.[3] In 1939 Sinaia left the port of Sète with Spanish Republicans seeking asylum in Mexico.[4]

Sinaia was scuttled in 1944.[1]
