Blue Marlin

Corde

The Ultimate Diving Experience in the Bahamas

The Blue Marlin is an exceptional luxury liveaboard, purpose-built by divers for divers and designed in every detail to deliver an unparalleled experience in the Bahamas. Measuring 40 meters in length and 8 meters in width, this steel-hulled vessel combines contemporary design, cutting-edge technology, and absolute comfort. It accommodates up to 26 guests in 14 elegantly appointed cabins, each featuring an ensuite bathroom, individually controlled air conditioning, and ocean views — including two single cabins, ten twin cabins, and two spacious king-size cabins.

Certified Passenger Ship, Blue Marlin belongs to the select few liveaboards worldwide meeting the same international safety standards as ocean-going passenger vessels. A guarantee of reliability, comfort and peace of mind, allowing Seafari to take you further, safely.

The living spaces are generous and refined: a panoramic lounge and bright dining area create a welcoming atmosphere for relaxing between dives, while the sun deck and its open-air bar invite guests to unwind and take in the endless blue horizon. The expansive dive deck is designed with diver comfort and safety in mind, featuring ample gear storage, rinse stations, and dedicated photo/video facilities.

Onboard amenities ensure a truly relaxing experience, including Wi-Fi, massage and yoga sessions, daily housekeeping, and a varied culinary offering blending local and international cuisine. The 17-member crew, including five professional dive guides, is dedicated to providing seamless service and attention to every detail throughout your voyage.

The Blue Marlin itineraries explore the most spectacular sites in the Bahamas — Bimini, Tiger Beach, Grand Bahama, Nassau, Andros, Cat Island, the Exumas, and more. Each cruise promises a unique adventure, featuring close encounters with great hammerheads, tiger sharks, and oceanic whitetips, as well as vibrant coral reefs, mystical blue holes, and historic wrecks.

Offering Nitrox, rebreather friendly, and equipped for technical diving, the Blue Marlin partners with KISS Rebreathers US and DiveTalk to provide instruction and access to the latest DiveTalk GO! rebreather systems, along with premium rental equipment from Bare Sports and Atomic Aquatics. Built with sustainability in mind, the vessel includes a sewage treatment system and emission reduction technologies, in line with Seafari’s commitment to environmentally responsible operations.

A true jewel of the Seafari fleet, the Blue Marlin redefines the concept of luxury liveaboard diving — the perfect harmony of adventure, comfort, and environmental respect, set against the crystal-clear waters of the Bahamas.
