●Part of the Below Deck franchise, the series is now heading into its 11th season

Below Deck Down Under is taking the franchise to the Indian and Pacific oceans – where the sun may be hot, but the drama is hotter.

Following the crew onboard a luxury superyacht, and led by Captain Jason Chambers, viewers get to see the lengths the team will go to in order to make the guests’ charter as special as possible.

But six weeks at sea with the same people can grate on even the sturdiest minds, and the team must keep a cool head - at least while the guests are around - to provide as safe and magical an experience as they possibly can.

Once the guests disembark, it’s time to party – with the team letting their feelings known either romantically or as tensions boil over.

First launching in 2022, Below Deck Down Under is the second spin-off in the show’s franchise and is now heading into its fifth season.

At the time of writing (June 2026), Below Deck Med has run for four seasons.

This comes to a total of 69 episodes, with seasons one and three running for 17 episodes, and seasons two and four running for 18 episodes.

On top of that, each episode is followed by an “After Show” – with the cast watching clips of what happened and giving their thoughts on what played out.

In May 2026, it was confirmed that the show was renewed for Season 5.

On Below Deck Down Under, each season features a crew led by a Captain, a team of Stews, Deckhands led by a Bosun, and a chef (at times with a sous-chef, depending on the size of the boat).

While there are some repeated faces, most crew members only appear for a few seasons – and in total there have been 39 staffers appearing on the show to date.

All guests only appear for two to three episodes.

The most notable faces of Below Deck Down Under are:

●Captain Jason Chambers (seasons 1 to present)

●Chief Stew Aesha Scott (seasons 1 & 2)

●Second Officer João Franco (seasons 2 & 4)

●Chef Tzarina Mace-Ralph (seasons 2 & 3)

●Deckhand Culver Bradley (seasons 1 & 2)

●Deckhand Harry Van Vliet (seasons 2 & 3)

●Sous Chef Alesia Harris (seasons 3 & 4)

Below Deck Down Under episodes are rated between 15 and 18 Hayu – meaning the show is not considered suitable for children and younger audiences.

●Scenes of violence and in some cases, some violence
