Lobo Del Mar
Family Owned & Operated
“Lobo Del Mar” is Spanish for “Sea Wolf”, and is
the name of our family owned and operated activity & entertainment
company. The “Sea Wolf” was one of our
first live-aboard boats, taking us from the west coast of the United
States up north to Alaska, where we lived and worked on the water. After
many years of adventure in the last frontier, we left the boat behind -
taking with us its’ name, and uncountable memories.
Eventually, we made our way down to Old Mexico, and then on to
the beautiful Big Island of Hawaii.
Beginning with a jack-of-all-trades Texan and his Georgian wife, their eleven children formed the foundation of what has today grown into a family consisting of over 50 members – four generations of family that all work (and play) in some aspect of the family business. Besides operating a wide variety of land and ocean tours, Lobo Del Mar also runs handcrafts old world musical instruments and original hand-wrought jewelry, as well as entertaining many venues with our large music and dance troupe.
"The Family That Went Down to The Sea"
You can read more about Lobo Del Mar in “The Family
That Went Down to The Sea” - a collection of prose and poetry written by
Carrol Buntin (known affectionately by her children, grandchildren, and
great-grandchildren as “Big Mom”). This book, littered with pictures
from many memorable moments over the years, tells wonderful stories
about raising eleven children on a boat, and their travels from Alaska
to Mexico, Hawaii and beyond!
