Blackbeard’s Bahamas Liveaboard Adventure

April 17–23, 2027 | Nassau, Bahamas

Join Louisville Dive Center for six nights aboard All Star Blackbeard’s and a dive-packed adventure in the Bahamas, with up to 19 dives throughout the week.

And we have another reason to celebrate — come help us celebrate our instructor Trista Johnson’s 40th birthday!  Trista turns 40 on April 30, so we're kicking off the birthday celebration a little early... Bahamas style!

Think Camping on the Water... for Divers

Blackbeard’s is all about diving, adventure and camaraderie. This is not a luxury cruise or concierge-style dive vacation — think camping on the water with a bunch of people who love to dive.

Accommodations are simple, quarters are close, and the atmosphere is casual. Pack light, bring a good attitude and come ready to dive!

Eat. Sleep. Dive. Repeat.
