Port Castries Arrival Guide for MSC Seaview Passengers
Terminal & Berth Assignment: Pointe Seraphine vs. La Place Carenage
Cruise vessels calling at Port Castries dock at one of two duty-free harbor terminals: Pointe Seraphine (on the northern peninsula, equipped with two mega-ship finger piers) or La Place Carenage (on the southern city-center wharf alongside Jeremie Street). Walk straight through your assigned duty-free terminal concourse to the main security exit gate—your assigned LUCON driver tracks MSC Seaview harbor master berth assignments in real time and meets your party immediately outside the terminal gate holding a printed nameboard.
