Simon Mustoe (founder, director)
Simon has been studying and observing wildlife for nearly 50 years and for about 30 of that, writing stories, taking photographs and making short films. Ten years ago he began running expeditions including sitting on a remote coral reef 300 miles east of Australia and broadcasting live to COP15 about the impact of climate change. His observations and experience extend to travelling extensively through Australia and eastern Indonesia discovering new and exciting travel opportunities, as well as contributing to science and conservation.
