BAREFOOT BLISS

CAPTAIN
Cameron Creigh

Cam started sailing as a three-year-old tethered to a Hobie Cat with his grandfather sailing in his home state of New South Wales, Australia. Fast forward some years and when Cam wasn't working for one of Australia's largest real estate companies, you'd find him racing yachts on Sydney Harbour or delivering boats up and down Australia's east coast. After a brief sabbatical in Croatia in 2022, Cam decided to trade his corporate desk for yacht decks and he hasn't looked back since.

He has since sailed in some of the world's best sailing destinations including Croatia, Greece and French Polynesia, but he is now happy to call the Virgin Islands home. He has spent the last two years in the BVI managing one of the Caribbean's highest-rated sailing schools and he loves nothing more than sharing his passion for the ocean with everyone he meets. If guests want to learn a bit more about sailing, Cam is always happy to show them the ropes or get them behind the wheel.
