MEET OUR TEAM

Nature is indeed the best teacher, carrying important life lessons in every drop of seawater, gust of wind, and the many friends we can find deep within the oceans.  Seakola’s team are here to emphasize the sea’s vast knowledge

​

Each with their own backgrounds related to marine conservation and education, as well as a deep passion of the sea, our team is composed of the best people dedicated to create the best learning experience for our Seakola students

Diandra Hadi

Founder

Every time I go into the ocean - be it is sailing, diving, surfing - I am always humbled and cannot help but reflect how tiny we are in this grand scheme of the universe.  How weird and unbelievable it is how as humans, we always feel that the world revolves around us and exists only for our benefit

​

I thought to myself, if only people could see what I see, how beautiful the world, especially the underwater world really is.  Everyone would fall in love and each take their part to care and to protect this beautiful planet we are lucky to call home  

​​

In Seakola, we invite you to get to know our ocean deeper, but more importantly, we invite you to explore another aspect of the planet and have an exciting adventure together with fellow students that you will cherish forever

​

Let's set our sail, sailors.  May we will always be able to celebrate both the tranquil breeze and the stormy seas in this journey of life
