MSC Group says it will add a new private beach destination, Catalina Sugar Beach, to some of its Caribbean cruise itineraries. The new stop is scheduled to begin from November 2026.

The announcement is framed by outlets as an expansion of MSC’s shore experiences in the Caribbean, positioning Catalina Sugar Beach as a dedicated private destination for cruise passengers. Coverage focuses on the timing of the new itinerary change, with the key detail being the start date in November 2026 and the inclusion of the beach as a planned stop on select routes.

While both outlets report the same underlying development, their presentation differs in emphasis: one highlights the addition of the beach destination as part of MSC’s broader Caribbean offerings, while the other specifies the destination’s name and the effective date for itineraries without adding further operational details. Both agree the beach will feature on MSC’s Caribbean cruises starting in late 2026.
