Chef: Emma Clark
Emma grew up sailing in England, on her father’s yacht. She sailed all around the Southwest Coast of England and has always loved being in and around water from a very young age. Her career started in the hospitality industry, working in bars and restaurants as a server and a sous chef during the holidays, between studying for her degree in Education and Art. She then took a Gap year and worked as a Ski Chalet Hostess in the French Alps.
Emma has a real passion for cooking which started from a young age. She has taken a number of courses at Ashburton Cookery School and most recently in 2022 she enrolled in the specialist Yacht Chef Course. During her travels she has also taken cooking classes in places such as Thailand and Bali, where she enjoyed shopping for fresh local ingredients in the market and producing authentic Thai and Balinese cuisine.
Emma first came out to the BVI in 2013 to learn to scuba dive and she fell in love with the islands, the people and the way of life. Emma has been working on charter yachts since 2014. When Emma is out of the galley she enjoys teaching scuba diving, taking guests snorkelling and sharing her knowledge of the marine life and the local area. She is currently learning to wing foil.
