MSC Seaside rewrites the rule book of cruise ship design, combining indoor and outdoor areas to connect you with the sea like never before. Located as low as Deck 8 is a unique seafront promenade lined with places to eat, drink, shop, swim and sunbathe. And you can enjoy superb views from our two glass-floor catwalks and panoramic elevators.
The Zip Line will temporarily be unavailable on board our ships for cruises in the upcoming months.
The Waterfront Boardwalk is perfect for a relaxing stroll, at one point becoming a glass skywalk where you can enjoy a jaw-dropping view of the sea. The boardwalk provides access to a wide variety of restaurants, bars and other places to relax.
Miami Beach Pool
The unique Miami Beach Pool on deck 16 offers breathtaking sea views and, of course, plenty of space for sunbathing, thanks to the innovative sun loungers specially designed to give guests the chance to stay close to the pool like never before.

To get even closer to the sea while soaking up the sun, guests can also stretch out by the elegant South Beach Pool at the aft of the ship on deck 7. And for more amazing views, take a ride in the two panoramic lifts connecting it to the top deck.
Four decks atrium
The multi-level glass-walled atrium stretches over four decks, creating an atmospheric venue where guests can enjoy live entertainment and panoramic vistas. The two glass-floored catwalks outside the atrium offer guests a jaw-dropping view downwards.

For every new ship class that we develop, we completely revise the design to achieve optimal efficiency. We rethink the ship’s overall structure, deck space, weight distribution including the ship’s hull, rudder and bulbous bow to reach optimal hydrodynamics, aerodynamics, and maximize energy and fuel efficiency.
Energy saving technology on board:
Voyage planning software
An optimized itinerary means a reduced consumption of energy. We plan our itineraries efficiently and use specialized software to optimize sailing routes and berthing times.
Optimising energy use
In 2020, MSC Grandiosa's crew supported the implementation of Ecorizon, an innovate process of ship energy optimisation that collects data using onboard automation systems and sensors, allowing a very precise status report on the energy profile of the ship. The information collected is then compared with a dynamic digital twin to guide onboard operators, improve operational profiles and voyage managment.
Using data to drive efficiency
MSC Cruises' onboard engineers are supported by integrated automation systems that aggregate and make sense of enormous quantities of data acquired by field sensors and machineries. Better data has enabled huge advances in how the ships are managed and has also helped achieve emissions reduction goals.
Trim optimization
Optimizing trim requires constant readjustment. Our ships are equipped with a software application to monitor and optimize trim in real-time. This technology helps ship officers to keep the vessel’s trim optimized to reduce fuel consumption and improve performance.
Anti-fouling paint
Ships are naturally prone to barnacles, algae and marine organisms growing on their underwater surfaces. These can increase drag and make vessels less efficient. By using the most advanced anti-fouling paints on the hulls of all the ships, we keep them as streamlined as they can be. It’s TBT-free: we strive to keep toxic substances as far from the ocean as possible.
High-efficiency appliances
Reducing our carbon footprint is not just about grand gestures; everyday electricity use is equally important. Energy-efficient appliances including refrigerators, water heaters, dishwashers, washing machines and dryers across our fleet help us keep our carbon footprint lower.
Energy-saving LED lighting
Our ships only use energy-efficient LED and fluorescent lighting, saving energy by producing the same amount of light per bulb at a lower wattage.
Smart heating, ventilation and air conditioning system (HVAC)
The HVAC systems on board our ships are designed to reduce energy consumption. They distribute heat and cold intelligently and are set up to recover heat from warmer areas of a ship to heat those which need it more.
New technologies combined with energy efficiency programs has led to a 28% reduction in carbon intensity since 2008
A target has been set to reduce further energy use across the fleet by 2.5% per year on a per ship basis
