Why should you book the Bahamas Cat Ppalu Liveaboard?

The Bahamas Cat Ppalu is a sailing catamaran dive boat that ‘s great for scuba divers. So if you’re not looking to scuba dive the Islands of the Bahamas, the Bahamas Cat Ppalu is not for you.

Mostly available for groups of charter if you are keen to take the boat over for your own dive trip.

You can scuba dive the Bahamas from a land-based resort. But the disadvantage of this is you won’t be able to dive as much as you can on a liveaboard dive boat. This is another reason to book the Bahamas Cat Ppalu catamaran liveaboard for a scuba diving trip of a lifetime.

One dive site the Cat Ppalu doesn’t dive is Tiger Beach to dive with tiger sharks. But if you would prefer to include this dive site in your itinerary, take a read of this article about the Bahamas Tiger Shark Liveaboards. But that doesn’t mean you won’t see tiger sharks on some of your dives.

Table of Bahamas liveaboards

This list of Bahamas liveaboards is in descending customer rating order, followed by Scuba Diving Luxury Rating (SDE Lux Rating, see below), so the liveaboards with the highest customer rating and the best SDE lux rating will be at the top of the list. If you want to change the list order, use the “Sort by” dropdown below.

The Scuba Diving Earth Luxury Rating (SDE Lux Rating) is explained on each liveaboard review when you click the “Discover Liveaboard” link, and is my own Liveaboard Luxury Rating I’ve assigned to all liveaboards. Choosing between liveaboards is helped by customer scores, and if you get stuck choosing between two or three liveaboards, where each one has a high customer score out of 10, you can use the SDE Luxury Rating to help narrow down your choice.

Think about it like using Booking.com when searching for the best hotel. Booking.com also use a customer score where each customer rates hotels out of 10. This is similar to the liveaboard customer rating, which is also rated out of 10. But let’s say you only like to stay in hotels rated 8 and above on Booking.com, but you also want the hotel to have WIFI or parking, or to have a swimming pool etc. The features each hotel has is usually secondary to the score out of 10.
