Highlights
Join the All Star Blackbeard's Sea Explorer to dive into the crystal-clear waters of the Bahamas. Perfect for single travelers on a budget, the All Star Blackbeard's Sea Explorer, the identical twin sister of All Star Blackbeard's Morning Star, a member of the All Star Liveaboards Fleet, offers 3 dormitory-style cabin areas with 18 bunks and 3 shared bathrooms. Each cabin area has AC, and all are sectioned off with privacy curtains, similar to a sleeper cabin on a train. There is a choice of double or single bunks. Buffet meals with picnic-style dining are served in the air-conditioned salon, and all meals, snacks, and drinks, including beer, wine, and rum punch, are included during your stay.
All Star Blackbeard's Sea Explorer trips include diving with sharks, exhilarating drift diving, beautiful walls, and blue holes around the Exuma Cays. There is no set itinerary aboard the All Star Blackbeard's Sea Explorer; the captain and crew will take the boat where the conditions and weather are best. Plenty of non-diving activities are on offer, so your time above the water will be just as memorable as below.

Amazing trip with great dives, amazing food, and a crew that goes above and beyond
I just got back from the Morning Star, and it was absolutely amazing! From the moment we boarded until our departure, the crew took care of us exceptionally well. Most of the dives were unguided, but the dive briefings were detailed and extremely helpful, giving us everything we needed to confidently enjoy each site. The crew went above and beyond in every way. The facilities are basic but perfectly adequate, and everything was clean and well-maintained. We did have a little hiccup during the trip and had to return to port, but Captain Alex handled it professionally—giving us a clear download, setting expectations, and making sure we felt safe and cared for. The food on board was incredible, and the daily rum punch was a fun bonus! We even celebrated New Year’s Eve with bubbles, which made the experience even more memorable. Overall, this trip left me a super happy bubble maker with a happy belly—I couldn’t recommend it more!

Amazing First Liveaboard Trip!
This trip was honestly such an amazing experience. You board the boat with more than 20 strangers and leave with new friends! Dive spots were incredible - some of the best diving we have done in the Bahamas! Food was great and crew made it even better. Highly recommend!

Impossible to get more on a trip!
The crew on Blackbeards Sea Explorer were phenomenal! Brian did great briefings. Iain took us to amazing spots with our safety always in mind. Justing gave us the VIP treatment with great stories, Elayna was a joy to be around, and Chris was a blast and worked hard to keep everything running. Also, Gladys cooked amazing food and was a ton of fun to be around! Only thing I could recommend in the future would be a Margarita machine but that's it. Can't wait to come back!

Blackbeards truly IS the Best of the Bahamas!
The "Washing Machine" dive, the Shark Feed dive, and the impromptu underwater magic show! I've been on a lot of different liveaboards over the past few years, and Blackbeard's is the best in overall diving and fun! We will definitely be booking again!

There is no better liveaboard value afloat.
We did 19 dives and it's hard to pick favorites but the shark feeding dive was a bucket list caliber experience. The night dives were exceptional. The washing machine drift dive was a once in a lifetime experience. The part of the experience was meeting the crew and other divers. All were great and made the trip memorable.
