The Blue Eyes team, can’t wait to welcome you to the BVI

Set sail with this crew on an unforgettable vacation that will leave you refreshed, with bellies full of good food and hearts full of fond memories.

After graduating in advertising in the big city, Stephanie she became a Divemaster and underwater photographer while working as a sailor in Ilhabela, on the north coast of São Paulo. After two seasons as an underwater photographer in Fernando de Noronha—Brazil’s premier dive destination—she began her international sailing career.

Starting in Panama, she explored the San Blas Islands as First Mate on backpacker charters, then sailed as a deckhand from Panama to Chilean Patagonia. She later returned to tropical waters, continuing to sail across South, Central America and the Caribbean. Steph holds a Master of Yachts license from Brazil and has captained a yacht in the Bahamas.

Julia is a passionate cook who loves experimenting with new recipes and crafting, personalized menus for her guests. Her Brazilian roots and diverse life experiences come together to create a unique culinary style, with each dish reflecting her personality and journey.

Born and raised in Brazil, Julia has always felt a deep connection to the sea. After earning her degree in Biology, she moved closer to the ocean to work with whales and sea turtles. During one of these adventures, she discovered her love for scuba diving, which eventually led her into the world of the boats. Today, she finds joy in life at sea and in making each guest’s vacation truly special through both her hospitality and her cooking.
