About This Vessel

All Star Aqua Cat is a liveaboard cruising the Bahamas region. It hosts up to 30 divers on board.

The Bahamas, an archipelago of over 700 islands and cays, is shaped by its submerged limestone plateau, creating diverse dive environments.

The Bahamian archipelago rests upon vast, submerged carbonate platforms, creating a seascape of stark contrasts. Shallow, sunlit banks covered in coral gardens and sand flats extend for miles before abruptly terminating at vertical walls. These precipices plu…

Dive Area & Sites

The Bahamas is a world-renowned shark diving destination, offering thrilling encounters with multiple species in the warm, clear waters of the Caribbean and Atlantic. Tiger sharks are reliably encountered at Tiger Beach, while Caribbean reef sharks, lemon sharks, and nurse sharks appear in large numbers at baited dive sites. The islands also offer spectacular blue hole diving, including the famous Dean's Blue Hole, and pristine coral wall dives with visibility often exceeding 30 meters. Hawksbill and green sea turtles glide over healthy coral formations, and divers may encounter dolphins, eagle rays, and the occasional oceanic whitetip shark in deeper waters. The Exuma Cays Land and Sea Park provides protected reefs with exceptional fish density and healthy conch populations.

Airport Transfers

The All Star Aqua Cat runs a Saturday-through-Saturday itinerary. Passengers are welcome to embark beginning at 18:00 on Saturday. The boat docks back at the harbor on Friday afternoon, with the final exit from the ship scheduled for 09:00 the next Saturday morning. Land transport to or from the boat can be scheduled for a cost of $20.00 per person for each leg of the trip. Airport transfers are not included in the trip price. Guests should arrange their own transfers to the embarkation point in Nassau.

Insurance Recommendation

We strongly recommend all guests to purchase comprehensive dive accident insurance and trip cancellation insurance before departure. Dive accident insurance covers medical treatment, hyperbaric chamber costs, and emergency evacuation in the event of a diving incident. Trip cancellation insurance protects your financial investment, not only if you need to cancel or cut short your trip due to personal illness, injury, or other unforeseen circumstances, but also if the trip is postponed or cancelled by the operator due to severe weather, technical issues, or other operational reasons. In the unlikely event of operator insolvency, cancellation insurance can also help recover your payments. Please ensure your policies are valid for the entire duration of your trip and cover the planned activities.

Medical Form Required

A valid dive medical certificate or an accepted medical form is required for all guests on this vessel. You can submit a doctor's certificate confirming your fitness to dive, or complete and sign the medical form yourself if the form and operator permit self-declaration. If your answers or the operator's rules require medical clearance, a doctor's approval is mandatory; signing at your own risk does not replace it. Permission to dive remains subject to the operator's requirements. Download the form, complete it for each guest and upload the signed document in your booking area.
