Brief

Captain Brandon

Brandon grew up in South Africa and when school holidays came around, his family would head to the coast where he spent his time on boats and in the ocean. At age 14, he completed his Open Water Diving, from there he followed his love for diving, which led him to not only get certified as a Divemaster in Sodwana Bay, Mozambique, but he ended up staying on as an Employee and Instructor.

He has a passion for fishing, spearfishing and freediving. With an interest in sailing, he joined the charter industry with his brother and he continued to work as a Chef on board in the British Virgin Islands for half a decade before being offered a Base Manager position in Saint Vincent & The Grenadines.
The timing was right for him to pursue his biggest dream of becoming a Captain and he gave up his management position to jump back on board and do what he loves most, exploring the oceans above and below sea level.
Not only is he also a masseuse, but he is also the secret keeper for ‘Brandon's secret spots’ in the BVI which he loves to take guests to.

Chef Arno

Born with a love for the sea and a passion for flavor, Arno began his career on the water as one of the youngest volunteers at South Africa’s National Sea Rescue Institute. After years working as a charter captain, he followed his heart into the galley—and hasn’t looked back since.
Now a formally trained chef from the South African Chefs Academy, Arno specializes in fresh, from-scratch dishes that fuse comfort, creativity, and a hint of South African flair. His guests love his warm hospitality just as much as his home-baked breads and vibrant, locally inspired menus.
Whether catering to dietary needs or surprising guests with traditional delicacies, Arno takes pride in making people feel at home through food.
Off the clock, you’ll find him road-tripping, fishing, or camping under the stars.
