MSC Cruises has provided new details on The Harbour, an outdoor space on MSC World America ship. The 22-deck liner is scheduled to start revenue operations from PortMiami Florida USA on April 12, 2025.

MSC World America will feature various venues and concepts designed specifically for the USA market, including The Harbour, an outdoor park designed for families.

Located on the top deck, The Harbour offers a variety of activities and complimentary grab-and-go food options. This space is designed to transition from day to night, with live musical performances for adults while children and teenagers continue to enjoy the attractions.

Key highlights include:

  • The Harbour Aquapark: Combining adventure and leisure, it features multiple water slides, a splash area, and a raft slide with virtual reality technology.
  • Jaw Drop @ The Spiral: One of the longest dry slides at sea, this slide takes riders through the jaws of a shark and spirals down 11 decks through the World Promenade.
  • Rock-Climbing Wall: A challenging rock wall for children, encouraging them to navigate various handholds and footholds.
  • High Trail Ropes Course: Spanning 6,210 square feet, this two-level course includes Sky Rails akin to zip lines, allowing guests to test their balance while enjoying sea views.
  • The Harbour Light House: A thematic playground modeled after the lighthouse at Ocean Cay MSC Marine Reserve, featuring a slide and play stations.
  • The Harbour Bar & Bites: Offering complimentary grab-and-go food and drink options for families.
  • Family Dwelling Area: Providing comfortable seating and shaded areas for relaxation with scenic sea views.
  • Cliffhanger: An over-water swing ride with four seats that start near the deck before lifting riders over the ship's edge, offering a thrilling experience.

The Harbour, together with the Doremiland (children’s complex) and Sportsplex (sports complex) forms the Family Aventura District.
