This month we celebrate an incredible milestone — 10 years with Kangaroo Island Ocean Safari for our head skipper, Illija Porter-Baines. 👏🌊

Starting with us at just 16 years old, Illija has grown from a young deckhand with a passion for the ocean into an exceptional leader, mentor, and head skipper.

Over the past decade, he has become a huge part of the heart and soul of our team, sharing unforgettable, world class experiences with thousands of guests and helping shape the culture of our business along the way.

His dedication, knowledge of the ocean, work ethic, and commitment to both our crew and customers is something truly special. Watching him grow into the respected skipper and leader he is today has been an absolute privilege.

Thank you, Illija, for 10 amazing years of hard work, loyalty, laughs, and adventure. We’re incredibly proud of everything you’ve achieved and excited for many more years ahead.

Please join us in congratulating Illija on this amazing milestone! 🎉
