About Hillary:

Born and raised in Central Texas, the water has always been part of who I am — I was even born on the banks of the Comal River. At 37 years old, my passion for travel and the ocean has taken me across the United States and throughout the Caribbean, where I fell in love with crystal-clear waters, soft sandy beaches, jungle adventures, and unforgettable moments beneath the waves. Whether it’s swimming with dolphins and sharks, chasing sunsets at sea, or channeling my inner red-headed mermaid amongst the ocean life, I believe there’s nothing more refreshing than letting Mother Nature wash over you. From romantic getaways and unforgettable family vacations to thrilling adventures worthy of Caribbean pirates, I’m passionate about helping others create lifelong memories on the water.
