The MSC Seashore recently kicked off a routine drydock at the Grand Bahama Shipyard in Freeport, the Bahamas.

After pausing its operations in Port Canaveral in late March, the MSC Cruises vessel arrived at the facility on April 1, 2026.

The 4,560-passenger ship is now expected to undergo maintenance and routine work before welcoming guests back later this month.

After entering service in 2021, the Seashore is also undergoing class work as part of its first statutory drydock.

For its first sailing after the project, the vessel will welcome guests for a weeklong cruise on April 19, 2026.

The seven-night itinerary includes visits to ports in Mexico and the Bahamas, including Cozumel, Costa Maya, Nassau and Ocean Cay.

The MSC Seashore is currently sailing from Port Canaveral on year-round basis for three- to seven-night cruises to the Caribbean and the Bahamas.

The cruises are highlighted by regular stops at Ocean Cay MSC Marine Reserve, the company’s private island destination near Bimini.

In November 2027, the ship repositions to South Florida for a series of six- to nine-night cruises from PortMiami.

In addition to the MSC Seashore, the MSC Grandiosa is also operating out of Port Canaveral during the 2025-26 winter season.

Five other MSC ships are currently cruising from U.S. ports, including the MSC World America, the MSC Seaside and the MSC Divina from Miami.

After debuting at the homeport in late 2025, the MSC Seascape is also operating year-round cruises from Galveston.

Marking MSC’s farewell to NYC, the MSC Meraviglia is scheduled to offer voyages from the Manhattan Cruise Terminal through late April.

The company is now gearing up to debut in Seattle and Alaska, with the MSC Poesia offering a summer season in the region starting in early May.

The ship will later reposition to Miami to offer ten- and 11-night cruises to the Caribbean during the 2026-27 winter season.
