MSC World Asia will sail through the southern Caribbean – the ship will offer 7- and 14-night itineraries with departures from Fort-de-France (Martinique), Pointe-à-Pitre (Guadeloupe), and Bridgetown (Barbados).
The itineraries include stops at some of the region’s most beautiful and authentic destinations, including Castries (Saint Lucia), St. George’s (Grenada), Philipsburg (St. Maarten), St. John’s (Antigua and Barbuda), Basseterre (St. Kitts and Nevis), Roseau (Dominica), and Kingstown (St. Vincent and the Grenadines).
As MSC Cruises’ new flagship, the MSC World Asia will offer incredible experiences in the Southern Caribbean, including the thrilling Cliffhanger attraction—an overwater swing—the largest Venchi chocolate experience at sea, top-notch family attractions, lively entertainment venues, and spacious outdoor areas perfect for enjoying a cruise in warm climates.
