Seascape
​​​Join us as we return for a 2nd year to the MSC Seascape and head south out of Galveston!
Launched in 2021, the Seascape arrived in Galveston in November 2024 as MSC expanded their global brand to Texas!
Life on board is a blend of exhilarating and relaxing — you’ll find Robotron, an Adventure Trail, an F1 simulator, and lots more to get your heart pumping (hello, Bridge of Sighs)
For lounging and social moments, there’s the resort-style pool deck, multiple whirlpools, a dynamic multi-level atrium, and spots like The Sports Bar and Uptown Lounge. Oh, and let's now forget the infinity pool off the back of the ship on Deck 8!
