Travel to the Exuma Cays, Bahamas Aboard Your Own Private Charter Boat
Looking for a unique family vacation? A journey that the kids will be talking about for years to come, but will also please everyone in the family – with lots of options and flexibility in activities?
Picture yourself on a fully-crewed, private yacht charter – exploring remote islands in the Bahamas. Chartering a yacht is an extremely unique experience – much more flexible than other water-centered vacations.
Parents can relax – leaving meal and activity planning to the captain and crew – but you also have the flexibility to customize the voyage to keep everyone happy while bringing the family together in a way you never thought possible (and without breaking the bank).
The charter yacht, Cat Ppalu, heads from Nassau, Bahamas to the Exuma Cays for week-long voyages, the same as All Star Liveaboard’s Aqua Cat. But, when your family and friends have chartered the Cat Ppalu, you have the freedom to explore the Exuma’s how you want!
You are in control to customize your trip to perfectly cater to your family’s desires for an idyllic vacation.
If you really liked that last dive site, you can stay for another dive or more snorkeling. If you want to spend the day kayaking and stand up paddle boarding, you can choose to do that. Want dinner on an uninhabited beach? That can also be arranged.
The remote islands of the Exumas become your personal playground, allowing you to come and go as you like, all with the support of a full yacht crew to meet your every need. Go where and when you please (of course, you do have to get your family or group to agree).
But who would disagree on more awesome diving, snorkeling, or even just relaxing on your personal sailboat over the crystal clear waters of the Bahamas?
How many kids can return to school and tell their friends they spent a week on a private yacht in the Bahamas for their family vacation? Turn a normal family trip into an exciting adventure and make endless memories the whole family will remember for the rest of their lives.
The 65ft Cat Ppalu sailboat can be your floating hotel, with six double cabins allowing for up to 12 passengers and shared bathrooms. Spacious enough to provide ultimate comfort and privacy, but intimate enough to bring your family and friends together for a family holiday like no other.
Plus, there’s enough room for big families or to bring along the relatives and close family friends on this luxury charter boat.
Learn To Dive On Your Next Family Vacation
While diving is one of All Star’s specialties, these sailing charter boats are all about you. Trips do not have to be diving-orientated; you can create your own personal itinerary. Cat Ppalu provides an excellent base to dive from, but there are also plenty of other activities for the whole family.
Many families come out and take advantage of the charter boat experience – focusing on snorkeling, kayaking, paddle boarding, beachcombing, relaxing, and other land-based activities.
Explore white sand beaches with no other people around, with the freedom to decide if you want to stay longer in one place or move on to another.
Not a diver but curious to try? We can do that, too. With top-of-the-line rental dive equipment onboard and trained instructors, we can take your family diving for the first time.
Want to get your kids certified? Our dive instructors can make the week a family adventure in learning how to dive, getting kids advanced certified, or work on specialty courses together as a family.
For those already certified, the Exumas offer excellent diving with many different types, including healthy reefs with plenty of fish and marine life. There are shipwrecks and underwater planes to dive, a blue hole to visit, drift dives and more to help kids gain experience while having fun with the whole family.
Our famous shark dives can be included, too, for the adventurous family, although sharks of several species are common sights on most dives in the Exumas. Up to 19 dives and all shore activities included.
Chartering the private yacht, Cat Ppalu, can allow you to personally customize your family dive trip to meet whatever experiences you were hoping for.
For example, you can choose to only do a few dives, and the rest of each day can be filled with hiking at Warderick Wells Park, kayaking in mangroves, beaches, or open water, beach combing and looking for shells, stand up paddle boarding, and, of course, meeting the swimming pigs of the Exumas.
