When you plan a vacation with us here at Out-Island Explorers, you aren’t just planning a vacation… you’re meeting new friends. We love having the opportunity to meet folks from all over the world and show them around our little island we call home. Our journey that led us to Exuma is kind of interesting…at least we think it is. Dallas was born and raised in Nassau, Bahamas. He comes from a long line of Bahamas Olympians, both sailors and swimmers. I (Tamara) grew up moving around the USA as an Army brat, and loved almost every minute of it. My father was in the Army up until I was in high school, and retired in Alabama near the rest of our family. When college came along Dallas and I ended up at the same college, Auburn University (WAR EAGLE!!) in Alabama. The first trip I ever took to the Bahamas with Dallas we went camping on a secluded island in the cays with a group of friends. Little did we know that we would end up down here running camping trips in the cays. I guess I should have known I’d end up living by the ocean at some point…my name means “palm tree”.
