Boat Description

Blackbeards Sea Explorer is a great way to explore the waters of the Bahamas on a budget. 18 guests can stay in 9 bunk bed style room, sharing 3 bathrooms. The cosy galley and seating area has AC and is a great place to bond with new friends. You can also hang out on the bow of the boat and enjoy a complimentary rum punch while watching the sunset. Other activities onboard include deep sea fishing and halyard swinging. Nassau and Exuma Cays have hundreds of small, remote and beautiful cays to explore. There is an abundance of sites which encompass reefs (like Periwinkle and Jeep), wrecks (like Austin Smith), walls (like Whale Tail, Hole in the Wall and Pillar), drifts (like Washing Machine), blue holes (Jakes and Lost Blue Hole) and night dives (like Hammerhead Gulch and Ray's Reef). Marine life highlights include plenty of sharks including reef, lemon and hammerhead. Turtles, rays and a kaleidoscope of reef fish will mean all dive sites will leave you in awe.
