Margo Peyton - President, Single Mom No More!
Scuba Mom, Margo with her two children, Robbie and Jennifer, married Thomas Peyton on Feb 18, 2006 on Ft. Lauderdale beach in Florida. Tom and Margo Peyton had a beautiful sunrise wedding on the beach and then flew away to Castaway Island, Fiji for a romantic dive honeymoon. Margo & Tom Peyton, "Scuba Mom & Dad" hosts Kids Sea Camp with their children Robbie and Jennifer. As an avid diver since 1989, travel enthusiast and owner of World Dive Adventures a leading Travel Agency, Specializing in Dive Tours, (www.worlddive.com), since 1999, Margo realized a need in the dive travel industry for family vacation programs that would ensure time together and time apart for kids and their parents. Kids Sea Camp combines a fun, safe and educational dive program for kids, and equal relaxing and private time for their parents. As a result, she created a complete program designed to give parents a memorable family dive vacation and their children an experience of a lifetime, meeting other kids from around the world learning to dive, as well as building a common thread to love and protect our oceans ensuring the future of diving for years to come. Margo became a travel agent in 1986, having graduated Bay Path College with a degree in Travel and Tourism. A certified diver since 1988, after much traveling around the world, she moved to the Cayman Islands in 1991. Working as a Travel Agent and Tour guide she logged over 2000 dives exploring many destinations around the world including the Cayman's. Returning to Florida in 1995, Margo joined Caribbean Adventures and World Dive Adventures Dive Travel, which she purchased in 1999. Being a working mother of two, Margo had to spend much time leading groups and on the few times she was able to travel with her family, she was unable to find Resorts or destinations with suitable kids' programs. Driven by frustration, Margo began to research and seek out family-friendly resorts with fun, educational ocean oriented children's programs. She has since dedicated herself to bringing families and diving together through Kids Sea Camp. Kids Sea Camp gives kids a fun filled week of education and underwater adventures, and their parents a guilt-free dive vacation. Margo is also a photographer and artist, she works with local schools doing seminars and educational marine oriented in classroom presentations.

Margo has dove all over the world since and is an avid wreck diver, and certified deep diver. Margo has experience in leading trips on big animal expeditions as well as eco adventure group trips which have inspired her to create family trips now geared for the Galapagos, Silver Bank and Costa Rica.
