Chef Israel Campbell:
Chef Israel’s childhood experiences hunting for wild mushrooms, berries, and herbs in the Ozarks led him to cooking at an early age. Growing up with two professional chefs in his family, Israel learned to garden with his mother and is a natural at preparing fresh, unique meals.
During three seasons of work as a kitchen manager in a Denali National Park resort, Israel found his calling as a professional chef, and has been honing his culinary skills ever since. His repertoire draws from a wide variety of cultural influences, and blends traditional dishes and flavors with original touches that are memorably delicious.
His love for the outdoors led him to sea kayaking, where he began to talk to sailing crews and became interested in life on the water. Combining both his passion for food and his adventurous side, he was naturally drawn to the galley of a scuba dive charter boat in the Bahamas, and he has since become an expert at the art of sailing as well.
Israel not only works magic in the galley, but also free dives and spearfishes whenever he can, and loves to share his enthusiasm for the ocean with the charter guests.
