“The blue hole was the coolest dive site I’ve ever done.”
Highlights
Join the Blackbeard's Sea Explorer to dive into the crystal-clear waters of the Bahamas. Perfect for single travelers on a budget, the Blackbeard's Sea Explorer, the identical twin sister of Blackbeard's Morning Star, a member of the Blackbeard's 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.
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 Sea Explorer liveaboard; 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.

Please Note: Morning Star and Sea Explorer are identical twin sisters and may be used interchangeably. Whilst we can take requests for specific bunks, they are not guaranteed, and the rate is per person, not per bunk.

Go on this trip
Absolutely the best value for your money on a diving trip I’ve ever experienced. I think we also got very lucky with our cook Gunnar, an incredible cook. Felt like better than restaurant quality dining

Time of my life, I will be returning. Thank you Cpt. Chris!!
The crew were phenomenal at their jobs above and below the water (Annie's smile lights up the room and shes so knowledgeable, Barry is so kind and a great dive instructor, Carson's laugh was contagious, Eli is filled with such positive energy and always willing to help out, Gunnar toiled away tirelessly in the gally making unbelievably delicous food every day, and Cpt. Chris is a salty dog with a heart of gold who made us all feel at ease). All of the crew were very approachable and they all tell great stories, the food was spectacular (thank you Gunnar), the music was on point setting the mood at every time of day, the epic dive sites were well chosen and incredibly fun and easy to dive, the accommodation are close to what you'd expect from a hostle but way better (bunk beds, small/medium size shared dining room/kitchen/lounge inside, open deck for socializing and music and relaxation, delicious rum punch nightly and even a beer tap and wine options), the cleanliness was immaculate and the ship was well maintained. Did I mention that all inside rooms have air conditioning?

Amazing experience, highly recommend!
The crew were fantastic and did everything to keep guests comfortable, safe and make the trip thoroughly enjoyable. The food was amazing, diving was great and whilst the boat wasn’t luxury, it was comfortable enough. Would highly recommend this liveaboard!

What an experience
The crew was absolutely phenomenal. They dealt with many adversities, yet always kept the passengers informed and had several options. Will do another liveaboard trip because of them.

Awesome, great-value on a budget dive trip. Highly recommended.
The divemaster was funny and gave the best briefings. Our cook was an alchemist in the little galley. The crew was awesome and the Captain was very competent and experienced.

- Crew was fantastic and created a positive, fun environment.. Food was plentiful and delicious.. Very reasonable policies towards diving, according to diver experience and proficiency levels, including allowing solo diving to those holding appropriate credentials and equipment..

happy to spend Christmas with the most maxing group of people and crew
This was my first and definitely not last liveaboard trip. The accommodation were basic but comfortable enough. The dives were amazing. But the highlight of the trip is the crew members. They are the coolest group of people who enjoy their jobs. The food was great and we even had awesome snacks in between dives. I highly recommend the Blackbeard sea explorer. Will be back. Oh did I mention we saw a ton of sharks?

My experience was fantastic! I had some fears about the food on board the boat, but it was delicious (several fruits and vegetables). Also, there was a very good chemistry in the
I appreciate the work of the crew members, since even though we didn't have good weather, we did a total of 18 dives! Also, even though I was much younger than the other people on board the boat, I had a lot of fun and we the world integrated me.
