AUSTIN, TEXAS — Alex Ojeda has been recognized in Austin Monthly’s 2024 Best of ATX awards, receiving the title of “Best Bon Vivant” in the Travel & Wellness category. Published in the September/October issue, the recognition celebrates the Austin-based creator’s adventurous approach to travel and his ability to bring those experiences to millions of viewers.
Celebrating the Best of Austin
Austin Monthly’s annual Best of ATX awards recognize the businesses, individuals, and experiences that make the city distinctive. The 2024 edition brought together 167 selections across dining, nightlife, shopping, style, travel, wellness, and culture, with awards chosen by the magazine’s editors and readers.
For Ojeda, the honor represents hometown recognition for a career that has taken him to waterparks and attractions around the world.
From Round Rock to a Global Audience
In the accompanying feature, “How Alex Ojeda Became a Global Water Park Influencer,” writer Madeline Hollern traces Ojeda’s journey from making humorous videos with his grandmother during high school in Round Rock to building a combined social media audience of 14 million.
The article highlights the production behind his videos, including waterproof 360-degree cameras, aerial drone footage, and filming rides repeatedly to capture different perspectives. It also recognizes his role as a Royal Caribbean global creator ambassador.
That attention to the experience—and how it translates on screen—also informs Ojeda Media Group’s work with waterparks and attractions.
A Hometown Honor
Born in Mexico City and based in the Austin area, Ojeda has built his career around sharing his enthusiasm for travel and attractions. Being named a Best of ATX winner connects that international work with the community where his content journey began.
Ojeda Media Group thanks Austin Monthly and Madeline Hollern for the recognition and for sharing Alex’s story.
