North Florida’s leading swim team and swim lesson provider.

Wahoos is dedicated to providing a safe and welcoming environment for swimmers of all ages and abilities.

Spearheaded by Carlos and Stacy Mejia, we partner with committed families who desire to incorporate the discipline, courage, and heart required to become a Wahoo into their lifestyles.

As coaches, parents, and members of the swim community, we understand that as swimmers surpass their limits, they not only discover the joy and passion of swimming but also cultivate confidence and determination.

Thanks to the Adaptive Swim Whisperers Program, Coach Carlos is now an Adaptive Aquatics Specialist. This will help ALL swimmers be safer in the water.
