Max was born and raised on a coastal national park on the East coast of Australia. He grew up on the beach, exploring the rugged coastline and surfing its waves, which sparked an early fascination with the ocean and its marine life.
After relocating with his family back to the UK and studying in London for a decade, Max made a conscious decision to leave the big city life in order to pursue a lifestyle of travel and adventure. He began by qualifying as an advanced terrain ski guide and spent a couple of seasons living in the mountains before swapping the snow for a life at sea.
Max has a fascination with the ocean and a passion for hospitality, personally tailoring each voyage to your wishes and preferences. He aims to ensure you have a unique and unforgettable experience and wants to leave you with a shared love for the high seas and the adventures they hold.
