With three exceptional ships and an expanded selection of itineraries in Miami, we are providing guests with more opportunities than ever to explore the Caribbean in unparalleled style. Whether they are first-time cruisers or loyal MSC fans, there is a perfect voyage for every traveler, ensuring an unforgettable journey tailored to every preference.”

The Seaside will depart every Sunday for seven-night Eastern Caribbean trips to Ocean Cay, Nassau, San Juan, and Puerto Plata, and Western Caribbean routes with visits to Mexico, Honduras, Belize and Ocean Cay.
