Description

My name is Sam and I have been a user of our coasts for almost all of my life, mostly through sailing, paddleboarding and swimming at Strangford Lough, Northern Ireland.

I started this podcast to share how amazing our ocean is and people's connection through their hobbies and work.

I am particularly interested in ensuring the sustainable use of coasts, through protecting the environment, whilst balancing income for people and communities, and connecting people with nature through recreation.
