About Us
Wanderlusts at hearts, we inspire impactful travel by sharing adventurous stories of land, sea, and sky!
As creative partners with a commitment to ocean conservation, we evolve luxury experiences through our message that both worlds coexist.
By capturing the magic behind unforgettable marine life encounters in the Maldives, we spark curiosity in others and immerse their senses in the beauty and wonders of the ocean.
We have hosted luxury guest experiences around ocean conservation, romantic honeymoons/ getaways, and group retreats with leading luxury resort brands such as the Pullman, W Hotels, Ritz-Carlton, Marriott, Mercure, and more (scroll our portfolio for details).
Let's come together to inspire meaningful travel, protect the beauty of the sea, and create a positive impact on the world.
Are you ready to make WAVES with us?

Previous Partnerships
We have a commitment to partnering with eco-conscious brands that align with our mission of ocean conservation. We believe that these partnerships are important for creating truly meaningful and sustainable experiences for our guests.
We have partnered with leading hotel brands as listed all around, as well as organizations like PADI and Girls That Freedive (the largest female-led diving community). These partnerships have helped all of our brands to increase ocean awareness, group bookings, and reach an audience of 2.5 million per month. They even led to an opportunity for us to speak at events such as ADEX, Asia's largest dive exposition, held at the Marina Bay Sands Convention Center in Singapore.
We are always looking to make waves by collaborating with ocean-first partners.

As honorary guest speakers, we were invited to partner with and elevate the Pullman Maldives's 2nd annual Aqua Week.
At this weeklong event dedicated to World's Ocean Day, we hosted engaging experiences for our guests such as ocean conservation talks, breath-work workshops, mermaid activities for kids, and coral restoration education at the underwater villa (as shown to the right).
This event was successful in generating more inquiries for their variety of water sports activities, increasing bookings from our live campaigns, as well as promoting donations for coral restoration efforts.

We captured the spirit of
"bold & adventurous" experiences as part of their brand values within 5 nights, 10 scuba dives, and 2 snorkel trips.
