On this episode of Brown Water Banter, we sit down with Terry Guilbeau—a Gulf Coast kayak fisherman whose story goes way deeper than most folks realize.

Terry didn’t just wake up one day paddling from shore to barrier islands. His journey took him from Louisiana to Texas, Miami, and eventually right here on the Mississippi Gulf Coast. Along the way, he built a career as an architect that led to an unexpected chapter—designing Margaritaville destinations around the world and working directly with Jimmy Buffett himself.

🍹 Designing Margaritaville from the ground up

This is a deep, laid-back conversation about chasing freedom, building a life around the water, and why sometimes the most “Brown Water” places turn out to be pure paradise.

If you’ve ever wondered what pushes someone to load a kayak and point it toward the horizon—this episode is for you.
