What terminal does Disney Cruise leave from in Miami?

Miami Port Terminal Upon arriving at the port, follow the signs to the Disney Cruise Line ship and Terminal C, where you can drop off luggage. From there, you'll be directed to drive to a nearby parking garage across from the terminal to park your car.



Disney Cruise Line currently sails primarily out of Port Everglades in Fort Lauderdale (Terminal 4) rather than the Port of Miami for its South Florida itineraries in 2026. In late 2023, Disney officially opened its second dedicated year-round homeport at Port Everglades Terminal 4, which is heavily themed with Finding Nemo decor and designed specifically for the Disney guest experience. Most of the Bahamian and Caribbean sailings that previously departed from Miami have transitioned here. However, for specific seasonal sailings that might still utilize Miami, Disney typically docks at Cruise Terminal G (The "Tent" Terminal) or Terminal J, depending on availability and the ship's size. Because these logistics can shift based on the specific ship (such as the Disney Dream or the new Disney Destiny), passengers are always advised to check their "My Disney Cruise" app or final boarding documents 30 days prior to sailing, as the terminal number is tied to the specific date and ship assigned to that pier.
