Started by a boat captain who couldn't find it anywhere
“I wanted to teach kids about our oceans in a fun and exciting way — a way I couldn’t find anywhere around South Florida. So I created one.”
I became a SCUBA instructor and camp counselor in the islands, then moved home to South Florida and started running ocean adventure camps in 2009. Thousands of children snorkeled, sailed, surfed and dived with us over the years — and the twenty-four kits started life as the lessons from those camps, tested on real kids before they were ever put in a box.
