YOUR OWN PRIVATE ISLAND
Featured on all MSC Cruises departing from U.S. Ports
Exclusive to MSC Cruises guests, Ocean Cay MSC Marine Reserve was designed to show our appreciation of the environment and ensure we are doing our part to take care of our planet, all while giving you a slice of paradise. With docking right on the island, you can walk straight off the ship and onto 2 miles of white sand beaches where chairs, umbrellas and cabanas await to help you sit back and relax beside crystal blue waters. Explore.
Ocean Cay offers multiple beaches to choose from:
North and South Beach: Located on each side of the lagoon providing calm waters for swimming or relaxing on a beach float.
Bimini Beach: Rent one of our private cabanas and enjoy endless views of the Atlantic Ocean.
Sunset Beach: Stunning views (hence the name) & one of the largest beaches on the island (over half a mile long of white sand).
Lighthouse Bay: Closest beach to the ship offering plenty of chairs, umbrellas and sun beds.
Paradise Sands Beach: The Spa at Ocean Cay is located here, allowing guests to enjoy a beachside massage.
Ocean House Beach: Exclusive only for MSC Yacht Club guests where you can enjoy an upscale experience & complimentary amenities.
It's not every day you get to enjoy a full day, or two, on a private island and we're here to help you make the most of your time on Ocean Cay.
Daytime activities & excursions:
Spend time in the lagoon or ocean snorkeling with beautiful fish and coral or relax on a floating mat.
