I founded Makai to provide people with a seamless experience when planning their water activities. Being a daily part of my life, I wanted to simplify the process of finding a vessel for people. After facing the hassle of constant inquiries about where to book or who to charter with, I realized that the search was taking longer than the actual relaxation on the water. I wanted to change that, so I created Makai – a platform that embodies simplicity and ease of use, reflecting my passion for the water. Makai takes care of all the logistics, allowing you to focus on enjoying your time on the water. It’s an escape for those who want to change their surroundings, appreciate the outdoors, and make the most of their time on the water.
