About Margaritaville at Sea Beachcomber

Margaritaville at Sea Beachcomber is the line's upcoming third and largest ship: the former Costa Fortuna, a 102,669-gross-ton Fortuna-class ship built by Fincantieri that entered service with Costa Cruises in November 2003. Margaritaville at Sea announced the purchase in May 2025, with Costa keeping the ship in service until late 2026 ahead of a makeover. The line has scheduled her first cruise from PortMiami for January 9, 2027, after a christening by Zac Brown, with mostly seven-night Eastern and Southern Caribbean voyages before a move to Galveston in October 2027. Announced features include Same Boat, a live music venue created with Zac Brown, what the line calls the largest 5 o'Clock Somewhere bar, two Bridge Wing Suites and a new spa.
