About the book
From the frozen swells of the Arctic to the warm waters of Iran and India, the author examines how coastal communities have built their lives around the sea and what we risk losing as this relationship fragments. Drawing on her unique perspective as both a professional surfer and marine social scientist, the narrative challenges readers to reconsider their relationship with water and wildness. It's a call to reconnect with the ocean not merely for recreation, but as an essential part of human wellbeing and cultural identity. Blending lyrical nature writing with urgent environmental insight, this is an inspiring meditation on what the sea teaches us about ourselves and our place in the natural world.
