About Us
Captain Tami Gray- Owner Of Family Water Adventures & Wicked Tuna Outer Banks Captain !
I'm Tami Gray, and I am the owner of Family Water Adventures. In 2007, I started this business with a few goals in mind. I wanted to teach my children about our home and the amazing creatures, shells, fish, and mammels that inhabit our inland waters. Secondly, I wanted to share my love for the water with others and give them the opportunity to see the magnificent views, treasures, and absolute beauty of the place I am lucky enough to call home. I have been exploring Hatteras waters for over 24 years. I love educating my customers on our awesome ecosystem and the varieties of sustainable life we have in our waters. There is a delicate balance between the two. It is my job to ensure that your adventure with myself and my crew gives you memories that will last a lifetime. We offer a variety of activities to ensure that fun is had by all ! I look at my job as sharing your vacation with you. I want it to be a great time and something you will come back year after year to experience!

Your Safety is Our Highest Priority
Living on an island has its advantages. However, it also comes along with quickly changing weather patterns. Our employees are trained to stay abreast of the weather conditions. We have a contingency plan if bad weather is in the forecast. Should the weather change or any safety conditions arise, your family's safety will come first. Our Captains have the final decision to return to the dock when it is deemed necessary. This is for your safety.
