Scuba Diving, Dive Center, Liveaboard & Resort Development Consulting


Hi, I'm Benedikt.
While some consultants prefer to stay safely on the shore, I dive into every project with enthusiasm. With 20 years of hands-on experience, I approach each endeavor with courage. This isn’t just about entering the water; it’s about embracing uncertainty and navigating challenges when plans may not hold.
I have built resorts from the ground up, refitted boats amidst typhoons, taught scuba diving in languages I barely spoke, literally been shipwrecked, and transformed setbacks into new beginnings more times than I can count. I don’t just consult from a desk—I build, I repair, and I guide. My compass is experience, my currency is trust, and my strength lies in recognizing what endures when everything else falters. If you’re working on something impactful, we can make it a reality together.
