このコンテンツについて

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.

  • Avocets and looking after coastal birds

    Avocets and looking after coastal birds
    2025/01/31

    Learn more about why ringing birds is important. I always thought some of the methods of capturing birds looked a bit heavy handed, but the birds were always released unharmed and it is for a good cause.

  • 4 Career Lessons from a Marine Scientist Consultant

    4 Career Lessons from a Marine Scientist Consultant
    2024/10/23

    I work as a consultant, supporting organisations and companies working in the marine environment.

    The purpose is to ensure any development identifies and mitigates the environmental impact on marine life. I enjoy the work because I get to work with a variety of experts and projects.

    Anyway, I hope this episode gives you a flavour of my career lessons so far and helps you navigate yours.

    Please excuse the noise interference at the start, it disappears quickly.

  • Grab your oars with Killyleagh Coastal Rowing Club

    Grab your oars with Killyleagh Coastal Rowing Club
    2024/03/24

    In this episode I speak with Joy and David who are both key members of Killyleagh Coastal Rowing Club. They kindly let me interrupt them during an evening of boat prep in the club shed (also David's shed!).

    I was not familiar with the sport, but coming away from the chat I soon realised how important the sport is for coastal communities, bringing people of all ages closer together and also to the coastline - not forgetting the physical and mental health benefits.

    As the episode is recorded alongside other members working on the boat, there is some background noise so I do apologise for that, but please don't let it take away from the valuable conversation.

    Please let me know if this episode inspires you to grab your oars with a local club!
