The popular yacht sailing reality series Below Deck Down Under is returning for season 3, which is scheduled to premiere on February 3, 2025, at 8 pm ET on Bravo. Below Deck Down Under is the third spin-off of the hit reality show Below Deck. The show features the lives of the captain and his crew members who work and reside aboard a superyacht during the six week charter season in Australia.
Bravo released the names of the new and returning cast members for season 3 on January 7. The returning crew includes Captain Jason Chambers, Chef Tzarina Mace-Ralph, and Deckhand Harry Van Vliet. Captain Jason, who leads nine new crewmates on the Yacht, describes season three as:
"dramatic, wet, emotional."
For the first time in the franchise, the new season is moving away from Australia and is instead set in the Seychelles- an archipelago off the coast of Africa. The new location introduces viewers to clear turquoise water compared to the previous seasons' backdrop of the Whitsunday Islands in Australia.
