The family owned and operated business Islander Cruises has been operating for over 30 years on Lord Howe Island, Australia.
Peter originally from Sydney spent his earlier years living on Norfolk Island before coming to Lord Howe in 1989 on a Scuba Diving holiday.
He fell in love with the place and wanted to share the uniqueness and natural beauty of the island to its visitors and to offer all activities from the one place.
Peter has been a Padi Divemaster for over 34 years and is the Owner /Skipper of M.V 'Islander'.
He has worked closely with numerous Marine biologists, researchers, and Scientists over the years acquiring an extensive knowledge of Lord Howe's Natural History.
With many years assisting Professor Peter Harrison and Dr. Andrew Carroll he has been conducting Summer Night Snorkelling tours in the Lagoon to witness the annual Coral Spawning for the last 30 years.
As a family run business Peter, wife Vicky and children Brooke and Noah are all strongly connected with the Islander Boatshed and Island community.
