Skipper
Joe was born and raised in Bolton, UK, and had very little interaction with the ocean for the first 25 years of his life. It took him a long time to discover his passion for the marine world, but Joe found it at 27 years old while scuba diving and snorkeling in Asia. From there, he became a freediving instructor and worked for a summer giving freediving courses in Valencia, Spain. After that, Joe did a master’s degree in Marine Ecology at the University of the Balearic Islands in Mallorca, and while doing the degree, he also learned to sail through various courses with the RYA. Now Joe is looking forward to bringing his passion for marine ecology to all the young mariners at ActionQuest!
