Over 60 moons have been discovered orbiting Saturn so far, but many of them are tiny moonlets imbedded in Saturn's rings, and are only a few tens of miles across. There could be as many as hundreds of undiscovered moons hiding in the rings.
Saturn has 62 moons and 150 confirmed moonlets.
Saturn has 62 moons.
At this moment Jupiter has 63 moons and moonlets Saturn has 60
Jupiter and Saturn each have 60 or more known moons. In Saturn's case, there are many small moonlets in the ring system. In Jupiter's case, a number of small moons (likely captured asteroids) have comparatively long and elliptical orbits far from the planet.
Jupiter and Saturn are the most massive planets in the solar system and so have the greatest gravitational effect.
The moons of Saturn are numerous and diverse, ranging from tiny moonlets less than 1 kilometer across, to the enormous Titan, which is larger than the planet Mercury. Saturn has 62 moons with confirmed orbits, 53 of which have names, and only 13 of which have diameters larger than 50 kilometers
Saturn has a total of 60 moons .
At this moment Jupiter has 63 moons and moonlets Saturn has 60
The moons of Saturn are numerous and diverse, ranging from tiny moonlets to the enormous Titan. Saturn has 61 moons with confirmed orbits, 53 of which have names, and most of which are quite small. There are also hundreds of known moonlets embedded within Saturn's rings.For a complete listing of the moons, and associated data see the Wikipedia article in the reference.

No, Saturn is known to have more moons than Jupiter, though most of these are tiny moonlets orbiting in Saturn's rings.

Although each of the four gas giants has a ring system, Saturn's ring system is by far the most spectacular. Saturn also has over 60 moons, ranging from small moonlets a few km across, to Titan, which is large enough to have its own atmosphere.
Saturn has 23 moons.
