Ocean Cay
Turquoise shallows, soft sand and the lighthouse set the scene for a day that can be as unhurried as you like.
Where you arrive
The ship docks at the island’s pier. This is MSC’s island destination rather than a town port, so your day begins with a walk into the island.
Find your pace
Three ways to spend your day
Get in the water
Swim or plan a snorkelling session when sea conditions are suitable.
Stay for the evening
On an overnight call, check the daily programme for the lighthouse show and evening activities.
Before you head ashore
Use our detailed Ocean Cay chapter for cabana and amenity maps, island transport, accessibility and drink-package guidance. Reserve popular rentals early and confirm current inclusions on your sailing.
Your berth, tender arrangements and available excursions can vary by sailing. Check the onboard programme, keep the ship’s emergency contact with you and plan to return before the published all-aboard time.
