The Daily Dish has previously revealed what production looks for in a location for the series, explaining that it needs to have access to a major airport to fly charter guests in and out easily.
Due to all the food and drink that needs to be ordered for the guests ahead of each charter, the location always has to have local suppliers nearby which can deliver provisions very quickly.
There also needs to be nearby hotels so the production crew can stay nearby while shooting the season for six weeks.
Meanwhile, the cast of Below Deck Med season one is made up of familiar face Chef Ben Robinson, who starred in the original series which is filmed in the Carribean.
New chief stew, Hannah Ferrier also joined the crew, as well as Captain Mark Howard and bosun Bryan Kattenburg.
