Four MSC Ships Will Cruise from North America next Summer
Andrea Santillan
- April 18, 2024
MSC Cruises just announced what their summer cruising season in 2025 will be like. Four ships, including the upcoming MSC World America, will take passengers on 3- to 7-night itineraries that will tour Florida, the Bahamas, the Caribbean, and Bermuda.
Let’s break it down by ship.
MSC World America: Caribbean, Ocean Cay
MSC World America will be ready for an April 2025 inaugural season. The cruise line’s biggest US-based vessel will take passengers on 7-night itineraries from PortMiami.
Guests can get acquainted with popular eastern and western Caribbean destinations like Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic; San Juan, Puerto Rico; Isla de Roatan, Honduras; Costa Maya and Cozumel, Mexico; and the cruise line’s private resort in the Bahamas Ocean Cay.
MSC Seascape: Caribbean, The Bahamas, and Ocean Cay
Also sailing from the new terminal in PortMiami, MSC Seascape offers 7-night eastern and western Caribbean sailings with shorter 3- and 4-night voyages to Ocean Cay and The Bahamas. Some shorter itineraries will spend a night at Ocean Cay, offering passengers more time to enjoy its exclusive amenities.
MSC added that it will be the first time a Seaside EVO-class vessel will be deployed on short itineraries from Miami.
MSC Meraviglia: Florida, Ocean Cay, and The Bahamas
The 2017-built ship will sail from New York City and explore Port Canaveral, Nassau, and Ocean Cay for 7 nights. Meanwhile 6- and 7-night trips will sail to Bermuda’s pink sand beaches.
MSC Seashore: The Bahamas, Ocean Cay, and Mexico
Designed for warmer climates, MSC Seashore offers 3-, 4-, and 7-night escapes to The Bahamas from Port Canaveral. A few of the 7-night sailings will spend 2 days at Ocean Cay before moving on to Mexico’s Costa Maya and Cozumel.
Most of the cruise line’s summer voyages in 2025 are a week long, but there are still enough options for passengers looking for shorter cruises. The upcoming season offers opportunities to experience MSC’s new PortMiami terminal and the mega ship MSC World America .
