According to a recent study, women drive the majority of consumer spending. Which means they are the ones fueling the booming travel industry.
Fittingly, women are also taking over the adventure travel industry, not only because they make better decisions (you know it’s true, men) but also because they are amazing guides, coaches and experience creators. AIO is happy to call a variety of incredible female athletes our guides, and we’ve taken several Adventures with them that have pushed our limits to the max. Below are the five most adventurous outdoor experiences guided by an all-star, all-female group.
Join AIO and local Cocoa Beach surf guide, Molli Miller Mead for a morning surf at her favorite break. Molli will begin by leading the group through a short yoga and meditation exercise to get the blood flowing. After going through ocean safety and awareness, you will have plenty of time to paddle out and enjoy the surf! With years of experience and local knowledge, Molli loves to work with all levels of surfers from beginner to advanced.

Suzie is a master at tailoring sport-specific workouts that will help you outlast and outperform the competition – even if that competition is just YOU. This session is such a blast, it’ll feel like she’s in the room with you pushing you to get better! All you need is a working computer and a strong wifi signal.
