There are individuals all around the country whose hearts beat in unison with the rhythmic swells of the sea. People who have found solace in the ocean and pursue a surfing lifestyle. Life Around the Sea is an odyssey of Australia and an exploration into some of the remarkable individuals who have transformed the sea’s enduring embrace. You’ll be transported to Australian coastal villages, hinterland hideaways, remote beaches, and solitary shaping bays that form the backdrop to these unique lives. Their personal stories, told by surf writer Alex Workman and captured by Russell Ord’s evocative and breathtaking photography, are a testament to the boundless beauty, mystery, and inspiration the ocean bestows upon us all. In this book, we encounter people from all walks of life, such as the surfer who first felt the tender caress of a wave in their childhood, the fearless and infamous big wave riders, the artists drawn to the coastline to bring it’s ancient beauty to life, and the shapers who expertly craft boards for wave seekers around the globe.
