Henru is a licensed Captain and certified Divemaster from the beautiful city of Cape Town, South Africa—a place where the ocean is part of daily life and adventure is never far away. He has had the privilege of navigating some of the world’s most breathtaking waters and guiding dives that turn “just another day” into “the best day ever.”
For him, the joy isn’t only in spotting dolphins or gliding past coral gardens—it’s in seeing a guest’s face light up when they experience it for the first time. Whether you’re a first-time snorkeler or a seasoned diver, his goal is always to keep you safe, keep you smiling, and make sure you head home with salt in your hair and a story worth telling.
With a steady hand at the helm, a deep respect for the sea, and a love for a good laugh along the way, he aims to make every trip unforgettable—for all the right reasons. Out here, the only schedule that matters is the tide.
