Itinerary

• Miami, Florida... your cruise departs from the sunny shores of Florida. You could add on a hotel stay here and spend a few nights exploring the Art Deco architecture, street art, and delicious cuisine of this oceanfront city before boarding the ship.
• Nassau, Bahamas... the first port of call on board will be the crystal-clear paradise of the Bahamas. Nassau is perfect for scuba diving and snorkelling, and one of the most beautiful beaches is just a 5-minute taxi ride from the port.
• San Juan, Puerto Rico... the well-preserved city centre is home to historic churches, charming squares, and impressive fortresses. 
• Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic... explore the fort of San Felipe, or ride the cable car to the top of Pico Isabel de Torres for spectacular views across to the ocean.
• Ocean Cay, Bahamas... your final stop will be on MSC's private island, which has six glorious beaches, a large lagoon, and plenty of water activities to keep everyone entertained.

Ship details
MSC Seascape is nearly identical to its sister ship, MSC Seashore, with a "glitzy, New York City-inspired aesthetic" that's filled with "metropolitan glamour" (Cruise Critic). During the day you can relax by one of the multiple swimming pools (including an adults-only infinity pool), unwind in the spa, take part in a trivia contest, a game of bingo, or a dance class, or attend a lecture.

By night, there's a 2-storey theatre showing a range of productions from single-singer shows to full on musicals. Or you can grab a cocktail and catch some live performances in the cabaret bar inspired by the Moulin Rouge. There are 20 bars and lounges onboard the ship in total, so you'll always find somewhere good to relax.

The main dining room is comprised of four different restaurants, which you can eat at for free, as well as a large buffet restaurant. Speciality options include a steakhouse, an upscale seafood eatery, two Japanese restaurants, and a Mexican cantina.
