UPGRADES

Know Before You Go

1. Explore Beyond the Main Beach

Some of Ocean Cay's most beautiful beaches are just a short walk from the dock. Explore beyond the main beach areas to enjoy a quieter, more relaxing island experience.

1. Book Popular Experiences Early

Beach cabanas, spa treatments, and premium beach areas can sell out before sailing. If you have your eye on a specific experience, reserve it in advance rather than waiting until you're onboard.

1. Don't Forget the Essentials

Bring reef-safe sunscreen and a reusable water bottle. The Bahamian sun is stronger than many guests expect, and staying hydrated will help you make the most of your day ashore.

Terminal Information


Where do MSC Cruises' ships dock in Miami?

MSC Cruises' ships dock at Port Miami, located between downtown Miami and South Beach. The address is: Port of Miami - Cruise Terminal AA 2200 N Cruise Blvd, Miami, Florida 33132.

There are multiple terminals at Port Miami. Your designated terminal will be listed on your ticket.

How do I reach the car park at the Miami cruise port?

By car, Port Miami is 23 miles from Fort Lauderdale, 71 miles from West Palm Beach and 238 miles from Orlando. To reach the port, enter the following address into your GPS: Cruise Terminal AA 2200 N Cruise Blvd, Miami, Florida 33132.

If travelling from the north on I-95 South, take exit 3B to Bayside. Head south to Northeast Fifth Street and turn left. Fifth Street will lead to the Port Miami Bridge. Continue over the bridge and follow the signs to your designated terminal.

If travelling from the south, take I-95 North and exit at Northwest Second Street. Head straight on to Northwest Fifth Street and turn right. Fifth Street will lead to the Port Miami Bridge. Continue over the bridge and follow signs to your terminal.

How do I get to the Miami cruise port from the train station?

The easiest way to get from MiamiCentral rail station to the cruise port is by taxi. The journey takes around 10 minutes.

How do I get from Miami Airport to the cruise port?

Miami International Airport (MIA) is approximately nine miles from the cruise port and usually takes between 15-20 minutes in a taxi. Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL) is 26 miles away (approximately a 35-minute car journey). 

From Santos Dumont Airport (SDU): although the port is approximately five kilometres from this airport, make sure to leave adequate time for the journey, in case of heavy traffic.

The taxi journey takes approximately 15 minutes. If using public transport, the journey takes around 20 minutes on the L1 metro (blue line) to Parada dos Museus, which is almost directly in front of Pier Mauá.

Is there a beach in Miami?

Miami and its surrounding areas boast some truly outstanding beaches - some of the best in the United States, in fact. Thanks to the mild climate throughout the year, every day can be a beach day. The most beautiful beaches are found on the barrier island of Miami Beach. World-famous South Beach boasts gorgeous white sands with turquoise waters, iconic Art Deco architecture and upscale hotels.

To the north, Mid Beach and North Beach are more low-key. North Beach Oceanside Park has shaded walking trails to provide a cooling break from the sun. Further north, Surfside Beach has a retro, small-town vibe that appeals to swimmers and sunbathers. To the south, the glitzy barrier island of Key Biscayne is a natural paradise, offering rustic beauty, sheltered beaches and abundant wildlife.

What is the weather like in Miami?

Miami’s warm climate makes it a popular year-round destination. Summers are sunny and hot, with a daily average of 28°C and highs of up to 32°C. Temperatures cool a little during winter, yet rarely drop below 20°C, meaning that beach visits are still possible during cooler months. Miami’s rainy season usually runs from late spring until the end of June.

Is Miami expensive?

While Miami is famous for luxe hotels and high-end boutiques, the city also has plenty of free things to do and affordable ways to explore. In South Beach, bike or stroll the Miami Beach boardwalk, or take a self-guided Art Deco tour. North of downtown, a former garment district has been transformed into a vibrant outdoor museum, Wynwood Walls, where colorful murals and street art can be found at every turn.

The Miami Design District is full of treasures for design aficionados, including cutting-edge architecture, cool galleries and the (free) Institute of Contemporary Art. East of downtown, Little Havana is a hub of Cuban culture - stroll historic Calle Ocho, grab a takeaway pastelito pastry and cortadito coffee, and watch domino games at Máximo Gómez Park.
