'I will never again walk by the sea without taking this book with me ... it is an essential coastal companion.' Kate Humble
DEEPEN YOUR CONNECTION TO THE COAST
Whether it's the warmth of the sun on sandy skin, the sharpness of a cold-sea swim or a rare glimpse of a bright
blue kingfisher, each month of the year brings new experiences, weather and wildlife to the coastline.
From renowned sea-salt producers Halen Môn, The Coastal Almanac charts the seasons with insights
on flora and fauna, recipes, spotters' guides, and plenty more. Halen Môn salt has become a favourite of chefs worldwide, and now they bring their coastal expertise to help you get the most from the seaside, all year round.
Rooted in the Welsh coast, this beautiful book is illustrated with stunning photography and bespoke illustrations. Perfect to be packed in a jacket pocket or bag for a trip to the beach, or simply enjoyed in an armchair at home, The Coastal Almanac is essential for every lover of the sea.
'This almanac makes me feel like I am sitting at the sea's edge... Jess's poetic writing will call you to the sea, to swim, to watch the horizon and to marvel at it. It reminds me that the sea always feels like coming home.' Anna Jones
