Jamie Owens
Adventure, Dive & Sustainable Travel Specialist
My specializations are in adventure, dive and sustainable travel. I hang my hat in San Diego, CA where I also teach paddleboarding to dogs and humans alike. I studied Environmental Science and Marine Biology at the University of Tampa, which is where my passion for sustainability began. I am a former PADI Divemaster and have traveled to many countries, exploring both above and under water. Some of my other interests include hiking, backpacking, camping, underwater photography, yoga, skiing, golfing and cuddling with my two dogs. During my travels, I am constantly on the hunt for local good eats and an adult beverage. I tend to hate the things most people love—sorry Taylor Swift, Disney, chocolate and coffee! My mantra? “Fill your life with adventures, not things!”
- custom independent travel itineraries
- small group tours
- hosted small group expeditions
There is an adventure out there for everyone!

Europe Trip
"Cannot thank Jamie enough for helping us plan our trip that we took last month. We had an amazing time. We started in Amsterdam, Netherlands; next to Brugge, Belgium and the Ghent Jazz Festival and finished with a week in Ireland. Our favorite spot was Skellig Michael Island but loved the whole trip. Jamie made so many great suggestions which made our time so memorable and enjoyable. She is amazing. I can't wait for our next adventure! Thank you Jamie!!!!"
Ireland Vows
“Jamie helped my fiancé and I plan a weekend getaway to Northern Ireland! She made traveling so carefree and easy. She booked flights, car, hotel & activities for us. Would highly recommend! We look forward to planning our honeymoon to Greece with her!”
Peru Group Trip
“Jamie planned the greatest trip I have ever experienced to Peru recently. I’ve been on many trips and this was by far the most organized and action packed trip. We were able to see so many things and the experience was nothing short of amazing. If you need a trip planned I highly recommend using Jamie!”
Group trip to Peru
“I recently went on a trip to Peru that Jamie led. She planned an adventure that allowed our group of 8 to experience Peru’s culture, history, and people in the most beautiful way. If you’ve ever considered doing any adventure traveling but weren’t sure how to go about planning it, Jamie is your girl. Every detail of each day was perfectly planned and organized without feeling like a strict itinerary. I can’t thank her enough for my most memorable trip to date!”
Honeymoon to Belize
“Jamie did an amazing job being patient with my wife and I as we decided to go to San Pedro Belize. She was so helpful and went the extra mile with our questions and changing our minds. She was great with communication via email, text or phone calls. We had a wonderful time and highly recommend Jamie, Belize and Portofino Resort.”
