50 THINGS TO DO BY THE SEA Hardcover

50 Things to Do By the Sea by Easkey Britton and illustrated by Maria Nilsson is a beautifully presented and practical guide designed for anyone who loves the ocean and wants to deepen their connection with it. This book, often seen as a companion to "50 Things to See in the Sky," offers a rich array of activities, ideas, and fascinating facts to help readers engage with coastal environments. Divided into six sections, it covers everything from learning to "read the sea" by understanding waves and currents, appreciating the sea's benefits to humanity (food, medicine, climate control), engaging in activities like beachcombing, rockpooling, and open-water swimming, and even practical ways to contribute to ocean conservation, such as beach clean-ups and sustainable foraging. With compelling commentary from surfer and marine social scientist Easkey Britton and captivating drawings, this book encourages a more mindful and reciprocal relationship with the sea, showing how its benefits can positively impact daily life.
