Joe Willsher

Having grown up by/in the sea joe has always been a keen sailor, kayaker, surfer. So when leaving school he joined a watersports instructors course at Falmouth Marine School where he learnt the skills to teach these activities to other people.

Theses qualifications took him across the globe. From teaching sailing in Dubai to running surf lesson in the British Virgin Islands.
