SERENITY Yacht Charter

Captain Ryan Moore
A very warm welcome aboard! This is your captain speaking. We are looking forward to providing you with non-stop energy and good times, so I hope you leave all your worries on land because it's nothing, but good times allowed on this vessel. I was born and raised in Victoria Falls Zimbabwe, being raised in a landlocked country triggered my curiosity for the ocean and its wildlife, and this soon developed into a passion and love for the ocean in all aspects, from harnessing its power through surfing, sailing, kiting, diving and ocean conservation, to studying all the different meteorological phenomenon’s that occur in and around the ocean. I have been in the industry for 13 years and knew there was no other place for me as soon as I finished studying. The crew and I truly look forward to having you aboard and getting to know you individually and delivering a once-in-a-lifetime experience
