Kyle Walker
Tattooist and ocean advocate,
Kyle Walker Kyle has been a supporter of Shark Allies for over a decade. He is the creator of a unique fundraising event held every year in Pacific Beach, San Diego, California, called SHARK WEEKEND.
Kyle has been tattooing in San Diego for over 20 years, specializing in large-scale, full-body work. His style blends timeless Japanese influence with a strong ocean vibe—sharks show up a lot in his work, and that’s no accident.
In 2013, he started Shark Weekend, a two-day event where he tattooed nothing but sharks for 2 days. Over the years, this event has grown in to a team of artists that dedicate their talents and time to this fundraiser. Every July they partner with Shark Allies, donating a portion of proceeds to support shark conservation.
Kyle is a diver and underwater photographer. He has spent hundreds of hours in the water around the world, accompanied by his wife Alex, who is his favorite dive buddy and biggest supporter.
Kyle says: “Tattooing lets me stay close to the ocean and give back to it. If you’re into bold, timeless work with a story behind it, swing by the shop—let’s create something rad.”
