MSC Seashore

Snorkel the crystal-clear water off Grand Turk, including the edge of the famous wall where the reef drops into the deep blue.

A guided ATV ride past the lighthouse, salt ponds and quiet back roads of this small island, in about 90 minutes.

The easiest way to explore Grand Turk on your own: pick up a golf cart near the cruise center and drive to beaches, Cockburn Town and the lighthouse.

A short boat ride to Rose Island to meet the famous swimming pigs, followed by a Bahamian lunch, beach loungers, snorkeling and paddleboarding at a private beach club.

A quick, easy loop of Nassau's landmarks: the Queen's Staircase, Fort Fincastle, the rum cake factory and a stop at Atlantis on Paradise Island, all well within your time in port.

Stroll downtown Nassau sampling conch, local dishes and Bahamian rum at hand-picked spots, with stories about the island's history between bites. Easy walking distance from the ship.

A fast boat ride around the island to snorkel with turtles and tropical fish, then beach time and lunch on a small island off the coast. One of the most-booked tours in St. Maarten.

Drive your own off-roader over the hills and coast roads, ending at Maho Beach, where jets land just over your head. Built around cruise ship times.

A private guide shows you both the Dutch and French sides of the island: Philipsburg, Marigot, Orient Bay and the best lookouts, at your own pace.

Take the wheel of a soft-top 4x4 and follow the coastal Route des Crêtes to the fishing village of Cassis and the limestone cliffs of the Calanques, stopping wherever the views call for it.

Paddle with a guide along the white limestone cliffs of the Calanques, slipping into hidden coves and stopping to swim in clear Mediterranean water.

See Marseille's Old Port and Notre-Dame de la Garde basilica, then head inland to stroll the fountains, markets and café-lined boulevards of Aix-en-Provence before returning to the ship.
