Wave Life is a coffee-table book that shares images and insights into swimming amongst wave breaks. Created by an experienced ocean-swimmer, this book is easy but essential reading for anyone who is new to Australia’s surf beaches, as are found at popular destinations like the Gold Coast and Sunshine Coast. This book would be an excellent addition to cafes and holiday homes near the surf. It would also make a unique gift for foreign visitors who wish to know more about this realm that is an intrinsic part of the Australian lifestyle. The book does not just warn of safety issues such as rips, but describes different kinds of waves, and gives visual perspectives from within the water. It informs expectations and better prepares the reader for entering the turbulent but invigorating surf zone. Wave Life is currently in production.
