SUR L’EAU

CAPTAIN JESSE VAN WYK
Jesse grew up by the water in beautiful Cape Town surfing competitively, fishing and sailing. He completed his BSC in Marine Animal Science, after which he met his Fiancé, Amy Campion, his partner both on and off the boat. Captain Jesse is extremely comfortable in and on the water to say the least; he enjoys sailing, diving and water sports, but most importantly, he loves discovering beautiful anchorages for his guests to enjoy.

Amy Campion grew up in Durban, spending most of her mornings’ paddle skiing or surfing with her father. She also loves to dive, snorkel, and continues to expand her wealth of sea knowledge that guests also get to enjoy. Thanks to Amy’s passion for Caribbean marine animals, guests enjoy a dose of learning and exploring.

Amy continues her cuisine education by participating in local courses in the different ports she and Captain Jesse have visited.
