Below Deck: Mediterranean Returns for Season 10 with Superyacht Charter BRAVADO at the Helm

By Anna Ingles 3 September 2025

Bravo’s wildly popular reality spin-off Below Deck: Mediterranean returns for its milestone 10th season, premiering Monday, September 29, 2025 at 8 p.m. ET/PT on Bravo, with episodes streaming on Peacock the following day.

Set against the vibrant backdrop of Barcelona, Spain, the season completed filming 20 September 2024 and reunites franchise favorites, Captain Sandy Yawn and Chief Stew Aesha Scott, who return to familiar waters aboard the brand-new to the series 147.4ft (44.91m) luxury yacht charter BRAVADO.

A Decade of Below Deck: Mediterranean

Since first airing in 2016, Below Deck: Mediterranean has become a cornerstone of Bravo’s franchise, inviting audiences into the glittering yet pressurised world of Mediterranean yacht charters. The series has not only showcased the intricacies of crew life but also painted a sweeping picture of the Med’s most desirable cruising grounds.

Over the years, charter guests and viewers alike have been transported to a world of enticing Below Deck destinations from the captivating charter routes in Greece aboard 150ft (45.72m) superyacht IONIAN PRINCESS, to the stunning coastlines of a Croatia yacht charter with 154.2ft (47m) yacht rental SIROCCO, and the elegance of Italy on board 177.10ft (54.2m) superyacht charter TALISMAN MAITON.

Each yacht, with its own personality and pedigree, has become as much a star as the crew themselves, whether it’s the sleek, performance-driven charter yacht SIROCCO or the voluminous interiors of 184.5ft (56.21m) charter yacht THE WELLESLEY. Season after season, these floating showcases of design and engineering have shaped the atmosphere and storylines as much as the destinations themselves.

Barcelona Beckons: What to Expect in Season 10

This year, the action moves to the cosmopolitan capital of Catalonia, where Below Deck: Mediterranean charts new waters. Against the architectural splendour of Gaudí’s city and the lure of the Balearics beyond, luxury yacht charter BRAVADO becomes the setting for an array of high-octane charters.

Not as popular as other Spain yacht charter destinations due to its distance from charter home ports and constraints on the amount of fuel needed to navigate towards the Balearics, Barcelona will prove a unique destination for Season 10, with a coastline that differs from the usual collection of secluded bays and coves.

Returning faces, Captain Sandy and Aesha Scott, anchor the show with their trademark authority and humour, while a refreshed crew line-up brings plenty of tension and intrigue. Bosun Nathan Gallagher steps into leadership under the looming responsibility of fatherhood, while a Michelin-trained chef promises refined plates with a side of unpredictability.

A matchmaking-themed charter, meanwhile, ensures the season will blend luxury with theatrics, offering equal measures of glamour, romance, and the inevitable stormy waters of life onboard a West Mediterranean yacht charter.

Spotlight on Superyacht Charter BRAVADO

Making her show debut at the heart of Season 10, superyacht BRAVADO, a striking Abeking & Rasmussen charter yacht, officially joins the list of Below Deck yachts and has benefitted from a series of meticulous refits with the most recent in 2024, which have kept her presentation crisp and contemporary while maintaining the seafaring pedigree of her build.
