About Secret Seaweed

I'm Justin Faulkner. Born and raised in Jersey, in the Channel Islands, the ocean's melody was my constant backdrop, just 50 meters from my childhood home. The wave I grew up surfing, 'Secrets', left an indelible mark on my soul and serves as part of the inspiration for this blog.

During my 20s, I chased waves across the globe, experiencing the raw spirit of surf travel. Eventually, life brought me to Margaret River where I found home with my partner Mada, our son Koa, and our spirited dog, Mango. By day, I assist chiropractors and healthcare entrepreneurs in refining their brands. But whenever the ocean calls, I turn to my passion project - Secret Seaweed.

The name? A playful nod to the old surf forecasting site magicseaweed.com, blended with memories from my heritage and the universal surfer's dream: luxurious accommodations just a stone's throw from untouched waves.

At Secret Seaweed, we're all about connecting those who, after years of backpacking and spontaneous surf trips, now crave a touch of luxury with their adventures. If that's you, you're in the right place.

If you have suggestions, questions, or just want to share a surf tale, don't hesitate to drop me a line at justin@secretseaweed.com.

Looking ahead, our vision is clear: to be the top destination for high-quality surf travel, making surf getaways both luxurious and predictable. So, come along and ride this wave with us. Welcome to Secret Seaweed.
