Full Bio
Luke Tipple is a marine biologist, TV personality, best selling author, entrepreneur and pilot. His love affair with the sea started while tracking down sharks in Australia with his father at 5 years old and being fed a steady diet of Jacques Cousteau documentaries. Guided by the universal language of the water he’s spent the past 30+ years in, on or under the surface, experiencing its gifts and brutalities. Since then he’s pioneered out-of-the-cage diving with great white sharks, used technical, mixed-gas diving to find sawfish on a deadly shipwreck, tagged radioactive sharks 250ft deep in Bikini Atoll, and searched for Spanish treasure in the Caribbean. Having consulted for and run several non-profits, Tipple is passionate about wildlife and his international conservation and policy work has been recognized for outstanding contribution by the Humane Society of the United States.
Luke is the host of Discovery Channel’s Nature Minute and is a regular on Shark Week. He’s also hosted two major network survival game shows as well as producing and hosting series for Travel channel and Snapchat via his production company.
A passionate creative at heart he is equal parts scientist, adventurer and entertainer.
