When MSC World America sails out of Miami beginning in April 2025, families will instantly flock to The Harbour. Designed as an outdoor space for families to play together, The Harbour will feature a waterpark, themed playground, ropes course, an 11-story spiral dry slide, and the Cliffhanger thrill ride. The Harbour is the heart of the Family Aventura district, one of the seven districts onboard MSC World America, and designed to give families an outdoor park to play, eat, and relax together over the ocean.

A first of its kind for MSC Cruises, The Harbour is perched on the ship’s open top deck, offering stunning ocean views combined with experiences designed to appeal to a wide age range. The Harbour is open from day into night, with musicians providing live performances for parents while children and teenagers enjoy attractions, including:
The Harbour Aquapark
A blend of both adventure and relaxation, The Harbour Aquapark features a range of thrilling water slides and a fun-filled splash area. The 90-degree vertical drop slide will challenge the bravest to climb into the departure pod and take a moment to gather their breath before experiencing a split-second freefall through a trapdoor to the decks below followed by twists and turns leading to the splash zone. Other options include a raft slide featuring virtual reality technology to make every run even more exciting and racing against a friend in the dueling body slides.

Jaw Drop @ The Spiral
A striking architectural masterpiece and one of the longest dry slides at sea, Jaw Drop takes riders through the jaws of a shark to spiral down 11 decks through the heart of the World Promenade. The stainless-steel dry slide alternates through dark and light segments offering glimpses of stunning sea views out the back of the ship in a unique, adrenaline-pumping experience.

Rock-Climbing Wall
Little ones can enjoy this adventure for kids by climbing the vibrant rock wall as they attempt to navigate the handholds and footholds to see how far they can get.
High Trail Ropes Course
An exhilarating two-level ropes course will span 6,210 square feet and include two Sky Rails similar to a zip line. Guests can get their adrenaline pumping and test their balance while enjoying sea views from new heights.

The Harbour Light House
This thematic playground for kids is modelled after the iconic lighthouse at Ocean Cay MSC Marine Reserve in the Bahamas. It includes a slide and play stations designed to spark kids’ imaginations and encourage physical activity.

The Harbour Bar & Bites
Families looking for a break from the excitement can head to The Harbour Bar & Bites for complimentary grab-and-go food choices and refreshing drinks – perfect for enjoying in the sun.

Family Dwelling Area
Guests can make their way to the family dwelling area with comfortable seating and shade to sit back and relax while taking in the breathtaking sea views.
Cliffhanger
Announced earlier this year, the unique Cliffhanger attraction is the only over-water swing ride at sea, featuring four seats that start off close to the deck before powered arms lift them up and over the edge of the ship. Riders are propelled back and forth for a one-of-a-kind, edge-of-your-seat thrill.

The Harbour—together with the Doremiland kids area and Sportsplex—form the ship’s Family Aventura district, which will be the go-to destination for kids and families around the clock.
