Tori Moreland
Meet Tori - Pat's better half. How Tori found herself immersed in watersports and the owner of a boutique hotel in Los Barriles is thanks to a con man, a pickleball kingpin, and a stray dog – but that’s a story for another day.
Growing up in Texas, Tori excelled in many competitive sports all her life and whether it’s kiting, windsurfing or wingfoiling, if it's wet and windy, she's sure to be out on the water.
Tori adds a whole other dimension to Wahoo Wind experiences through her other love of fabulous food and her vast knowledge of wine, cocktails, tequila and mezcal! You'll be sure to enjoy the après surf activities with Tori just as much.
