Caribbean Escape – St Maarten & St Thomas
About this cruise
No complicated itinerary, no back-to-back transfers, just the ports, the ship, and the sea in between. This 7-night sailing from Miami on January 2, 2028 visits Philipsburg, St. Thomas and Puerto Plata (Amber Cove). You ease into this one, with a few sea days up front to find your rhythm before the 3 port calls start. The route threads through 3 countries along the Caribbean coast: Netherlands, U.S. Virgin Islands and Dominican Republic. If one port sticks with you, it'll probably be Puerto Plata (Amber Cove), Dominican amber and Atlantic waves. Around 8 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. There are 8 restaurants on MSC Seashore, so you'd need to double up a few evenings to try them all in 7 nights. Miami itself is worth spending some time in. Don't just treat it as a departure point. It's the kind of trip you actually remember afterwards.

We added MSC Cruises's mandatory service charge to the prices above, so they show the real total. MSC Cruises bills it on board rather than in the fare, so their own site will quote you less.
