FIND OF THE MONTH Inspired by the unspoilt sandy coastlines of Guernsey, Sark and Alderney in the Channel Islands, illustrator Henri Ball’s nostalgic posters cost from £22 for an unframed print measuring 30cm x 40cm (hbstudioprints.com). DIVING NEW DEPTHS Ghost Fishing UK, a conservation charity that helps clear the sea of dangerous, abandoned fishing gear, has been awarded ‘Best Plastic Campaign’ at this year’s Plastic Free Awards. The charity relies on volunteer divers, who are put through an intensive three-day training course to prepare them for the risky job of retrieving ghost nets. Working with estimations that 640,000 tonnes of fishing gear is lost to the sea each year, the charity has set up a system for vessels to report lost gear anonymously.

I grew up in St Just, a few miles inland from the West Cornwall coast. It was pivotal to my upbringing and remains such an intrinsic part of my being. The coastline is very rugged; in the summer it can feel tropical, but in the winter it’s elemental and moody. You’re at the end of the country, next stop Bay of Biscay, and there’s a powerful feeling of finality and solace with the land behind you and a mass of ocean ahead. I learned to surf at Sennen Cove and Gwynver Beach with a juniors club, later specialising in longboarding, which is better suited to the Cornish waves. Given free rein, I’d surf every day, all day long, because it’s all-encompassing and the search for the perfect wave is so…

For author Jenny Jefferies, it was a privilege to compile For the Love of the Sea, a cookbook with hope and enlightenment on the agenda. Not only are its pages filled with mouthwateringly good seafood recipes, they also showcase more than 40 of the dedicated people involved in fishing and its associated fields of work. ‘Fishermen are the gatekeepers of the sea,’ says Jenny, ‘and I hope this book helps thank and praise everyone who loves British seafood and works with the sea in whatever form, from fishing and farming to selling, cooking, preparing, managing, researching and recreationally.’ Marcus Coleman, CEO of Seafish, the public body which supports the British fishing industry, wrote the foreword and is passionate about reconnecting us with our seafood heritage. ‘Nearly half a million tonnes…

There’s blue sky above us, the call of seagulls on the breeze, and open views of the white cliffs of the Sussex coast as storyteller and nature guide Nana Tomova reads the poem Exiled by Edna St Vincent Millay. It’s a fitting setting to hear of the writer’s yearning for the sound of the ocean and the ‘sticky, salty sweetness’ of its spray, as waves lap the shore and rocks below us. I know this stretch of coast well. The Seven Sisters are a famously picturesque series of chalk cliffs between the towns of Seaford and Eastbourne, and The South Downs Way follows an undulating course between them. It’s a favourite for hikers and film-makers, often standing in for the White Cliffs of Dover, and stars prominently in 2019’s Hope…

Most plants seemed to hold back due to the late spring this year, but these shot up regardless. Buzzing with little bees, they are a joy, and approximately 14ft high.

If there is a single environment that ebbs and flows with the tide, it must surely be the salt marsh. A series of creeks criss-crossing this spectacular landscape are reminiscent of arteries, pumping life-giving fluid to the living organism as the tide breathes in and out every six hours. Although the creeks themselves are often spread thinly across the vast expanse, like fingers of a hand stretched out, they usually converge at a single choke point – the wrist – through which the saltwater ferociously pours in and out with the tide’s semi-diurnal cycle. It is here where the mellow marsh suddenly intensifies with strong streams rushing through; as the tide rises at sea, water is forced through the constriction and flows into the veins of the marsh. And then,…

I was a city boy from Walton in North Liverpool, but we used to go on camping holidays to the Wirral Peninsula, and the Dee Estuary (pictured) has had a lasting influence on my life. There were lots of cousins, eight children in all, Mum and her two sisters – we didn’t fly anywhere or travel long distances but to us it was fantastic. I remember the sandstone cliffs with paths leading down to the beach, the tidal mudflats and finding lots of clay that we’d make things out of, getting our hands dirty. My cousin Robbie would wake me up before dawn to take me bird watching on the estuary. It was the start of my connection to nature and the way into gardening for me. We would watch…
