Meet Niki
The diver, planner, and trip leader behind every SXT Adventures departure.
Hi, I’m Niki
Every trip starts with me, personally.
SXT Adventuresstarted because I wanted to travel with friends instead of strangers. Today I still hand-pick every itinerary, vet every operator, and lead as many departures as I can in person. The trips I’m not on, I’ve scouted myself.
I’ve spent years on liveaboards and land-based adventures across the Pacific and beyond, building relationships with operators who care as much about the guest experience as I do. When something goes sideways, those relationships are what get you taken care of fast.
When you email about a trip, you’re talking to me, not a call center. That means honest answers, the pre-trip detail you didn’t know to ask for, and the kind of on-trip support that turns a good trip into a great one.

What travelers and operators say comes back to a few consistent things.
Real photos, real trips
Every photo on this site is from a trip we’ve actually run. No stock imagery, no rendered concepts, no someone-else’s-reef. What you see is what you get.
Small groups
Capped group sizes mean better diving, more flexibility, and a social atmosphere where solo travelers feel welcome and couples don’t feel crowded.
On-the-ground support
Gear questions, flight delays, dive insurance, last-minute itinerary tweaks, I’m the person you call. Pre-trip, on-trip, and after.
