NOMADIC ADVENTURES

Cruises Cape Town Walvis Bay

MSC launched a new class of ecological cruise ship, when she launched a new class of cruise - a spacious world of graceful lines and superlative choice, enriched by the creativity, fine natural materials and attention to detail that have always distinguished MSC Cruises. 

Sail from Durban with MSC Cruises

msc cruises durban to nowhere

Walvis Bay, which, thanks to its rich marine life, is one of the places of most outstanding natural beauty in Namibia. Its gourmet delights are not to be missed either.

MSC MUSICA CRUISES

Step aboard MSC Splendida or MSC Musica and experience a magical world of warmth and music that makes every minute of your cruise an unforgettable moment to savour.  Cruise from Durban  to Cape Town, or Cape Town to Luderitz and Walvis Bay

Cruises from durban maputo

Durban’s expansive beachfront on the eastern edge of the centre has one of the city’s busiest concentrations of restaurants, a surfeit of tacky family entertainment.

cruises to luderitz

Discover the city of Lüderitz, along the Namibian coast. It will seem like someone had teleported a typical German town from early 20th century Europe to Africa.

cape town cruises

When your MSC cruise brings you to Cape Town, it’s easy to see that, more than a scenic backdrop, Table Mountain is the solid core of this port city.

Musica and Splendida Cruises from  Durban 2024-2025

During your holiday, take some time between dips in the warm, crystalline ocean waters to stroll around this island. It is six kilometres long, about an hour walk on sand that caresses the soles of your feet (during the central hours of the day, it is best to wear open sandals because the sand becomes very hot), with only the blue of the water and the green of the low vegetation for company.     

Durban,  Pomene, Durban

Pomene, one of the most picturesque sites in Mozambique. The lagoon that protects this extraordinary bay, set between the blue Indian Ocean and the waters where the mangroves grow – these extraordinary plants appear to float on the surface of the water, like a forest in a fairy tale – is part of the Pomene Nature Reserve, a protected marine area that has managed to preserve its authentic and wild beauty thanks to its remote location.
