Water Nomads

Bevan grew up in Christchurch, New Zealand, exploring the backcountry by foot and bike. With his adventurous spirit, Bevan developed a keen eye to record stunning places and beautiful moments which founded a long standing passion for photography. After a 5 year OE (overseas experience) in London, he returned to New Zealand, this time settling in Nelson, before a career move brought him to Auckland. There, he did get introduced to windsurfing by Heidi. Together, they founded Water Nomads in 2018. Bevan is the person behind the camera and making all the amazing coffees in the morning.

Heidi grew up at Lake Constance in Germany. Windsurfing was her passion from an early age. After a backpacking trip to New Zealand in 2009 she moved to Auckland permanently in 2011. For several years she worked for a local surf and windsurf shop, learning the ins and outs of the industry before founding Water Nomads in 2018, offering top windsurf and wingfoil rental equipment and boutique trips. Heidi is responsible for coming up with new Surfari Trips, organising all the logistics and offering windsurf and wingfoil lessons for our guests during the trip.
