The MSC Seashore, the largest and most modern cruise ship ever to have sailed in Brazil, arrived at the Port of Salvador, Bahia, after visiting several Caribbean destinations, and ended the route of its Great Voyage there, which began in Miami on November 20.

It then passed through Búzios and Rio de Janeiro, before arriving at the Port of Santos, where it ended its journey and will begin its first season in the country.

After an event on board with the presence of its employees, travel agents, partners, press and digital influencers, the ship departed from Santos for its long-awaited debut voyage in Brazil, with a six-night itinerary, visiting the destinations of Búzios, Salvador and Ilha Grande.

During the 2022/2023 season, MSC Seashore will offer itineraries of six to eight nights departing from Santos and alternatively visiting the paradisiacal Ilha Grande, Búzios, Maceió and Salvador. In addition to Santos, travelers will also be able to embark in the cities of Salvador and Maceió.
