CAPTAIN on board from 6 July 2026 Tiago was born in Lisbon and grew up in Peniche, a surf town on Portugal’s west coast. From a young age he was drawn to the water—sailing optimists and 420s, surfing, and swimming whenever he could. In his twenties, he worked as a surf instructor at Baleal Surfcamp, teaching both kids and adults from all over Europe how to catch their first wave. He later studied at the Nautical University in Lisbon, earning a degree in Nautical Sciences before joining the Norwegian merchant navy as a deck officer. His career took him across the North Sea, Gulf of Mexico, and South Atlantic aboard chemical tankers, seismic vessels, and ROV ships. In 2019, Tiago returned to Europe and began working charters in Greece and Croatia, and it also brought him to Tahiti and the Caribbean. He loves that chartering allowed him to bring together many of his passions—instructing, navigating, exploring, and life on the water—and he’s been doing it ever since. Having spent most of his life at sea, Tiago is a confident and experienced captain who enjoys sharing his knowledge and showing others the beauty of life on the ocean. Calm, capable, and deeply experienced, Tiago makes every guest feel safe, relaxed, and well taken care of.
