Cleaning Up The Places We Love
During all of our adventures no matter how remote they may be, we always seem to find trash along the way. As responsible environmental enthusiasts and local guides, we make sure to leave every place that we visit looking better than we found it, and we encourage all of you to do the same! Last year we decided to keep track of how many pounds of trash we have found since the beginning of the year. We only counted the trash that just the two of us picked up on our own, and last year we collected 548 pounds of trash from our local waterways! We hope to inspire others to go out and do the same for the places they love.

We are “Squatch” Alex Tabone and “Siren” Serena Bass, two Native Floridian adventure guides with a passion for the environment, residing in Palm Valley (or Ponte Vedra Beach) Florida. The name “Squatch & Siren” comes from two creatures that some may consider fantasy, but can anyone be certain that these creatures do not walk the Earth?
The “Sasquatch” is thought to be an upright walking ape like creature that can be up to 12’ tall. Some characteristics of the Sasquatch are long furry hair, super strength, and a foul smelling odor. Sasquatches spend most of their time outdoors enjoying their surroundings and caring for their forest friends, much like Alex. Alex’s long burly beard has also been known to cause him to be mistaken for a real Sasquatch in several situations. Alex is extremely knowledgeable in identifying plants and animals above and below the water. His keen eye for spotting the unseen will impress even the most well-versed nature buffs.
The “Siren” is an alluring creature that lurks beneath the water’s surface. Sirens are always working to keep the oceans, rivers, lakes, springs, and other waterways clean for their underwater friends and for generations of two-leggers (humans) to come. You may have heard stories of the Siren luring and dragging sailors to their deaths, but rest assured - these were only sailors that were littering. Siren Serena has been making and collecting mermaid tails for over 20 years now. Swimming as a mermaid has come to be a great tool to draw awareness to important environmental issues and organizations, and also to help bring mer-magic to the world! Serena offers private mermaid transformation experiences to help others gain confidence in the water, so if you have always dreamed of becoming a mermaid now is your chance!
Together we hope to encourage others to live a healthy and active lifestyle while keeping our environment healthy as well. We love our Earth and want it to live on for future generations to enjoy. Our goal is to inspire everyone to help clean up their local community, and keep the world beautiful. A little bit of effort goes a long way!
