MSC Cruises has revealed a new video rendering offering a detailed look at its new private Ocean Cay MSC Marine Reserve, which is scheduled to open this November.
The exclusive 120-square-acre island destination is a previous industrial sand extraction site located in the Bimini chain of islands in the western Bahamas and is surrounded by a 64-square-mile marine reserve as well as four smaller cays.
Thursday’s video provides an overview of some of the island’s key areas and attractions, including the Great Lagoon Beach offering crystal-clear water ideal for swimming and water sports at the center of Ocean Cay.
Other highlights include the 98-foot-tall lighthouse featuring a Hemingway-style bar and a terrace where guests can enjoy beautiful views, cocktails, live music and a light show after dark.
There will also be “edu-tainment” opportunities for guests to learn about ocean preservation and MSC Cruises’ coral restoration efforts around the island.
Guests can also look forward to Seakers Food Court, a buffet restaurant serving up freshly prepared meals from a handful of international culinary traditions and an ice cream shop and cafe offering a variety of ice cream flavors and coffee drinks.
Ocean Cay MSC Marine Reserve guests will be able to conveniently travel between the ship and the island throughout the day and evening to access facilities both onboard and onshore.
Scheduled to welcome its first guests on November 9, 2019, Ocean Cay MSC Marine Reserve will feature on all of MSC Cruises’ Caribbean itineraries sailing out of Miami.
