Enjoy a festive Christmas cruise onboard the impressive and innovatively designed MSC Seascape.
Board your cruise ship in the winter sun of Miami and set off on a seven-night cruise of the Caribbean, calling at the Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico and incredible Ocean Cay MSC Marine Reserve in the Bahamas, before cruising back to Florida.
Miami is a city of wildly diverse districts, jigsawed into a vast urban corridor from two technically separate cities: mainland Miami and the huge sand bar known as Miami Beach.If you’re sticking to the most popular areas in Miami Beach and downtown, though, you can zip around easily by bus and on foot. During an MSC cruise in the Caribbean most people spend their time in South Beach, a fairly small area at the southern end of the sand bar, where you’ll find many of Florida’s leading art galleries, trendsetting restaurants, and much of its boisterous club scene.
When Christopher Columbus first arrived on the northern shores of the Dominican Republic in the late 15th-century, he christened it San Felipe de Puerto Plata or “Port of Silver” after the glistening silver mountain peak shrouded in fog. Today, its well-preserved historic center is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and Puerto Plata draws vacationers from around the world to its numerous tourist attractions, including whimsical waterfalls, beautiful stretches of white-sand beaches at Playa Dorada and Cabarete, and spectacular snorkeling sites all waiting to be explored
Discover our new and exclusive Bahamian destination: Ocean Cay MSC Marine Reserve.Here you can spend a one-of-a-kind experience on an authentic Caribbean Marine Reserve, while connecting with the natural world, feeling the warmth of the Bahamian spirit and immersing in an eco-friendly environment.On Ocean Cay you can enjoy a relaxing massage in a cabana, discover the beauty of the sea and explore the area with dedicated excursions.
