Meet the Team

We are a team of siblings who grew up indulging in Miami's Biscyane Bay. From a young age we had all learned to sail at Aquatic Rental Center, located just a few hundred yards away from the first two islands we adopted, Sandpiper and Tern. We all have a deeply rooted interest in our oceans, bays, and ecosystem through hobbies such as diving, fishing, surfing, camping, and more.
