The book is the first of its kind as it combines cultural history with the natural, as the historical context of the tidal pools are brought to life. Through the lens of South Africa's history, this insight allows adventurers to really enhance their experience of the tidal pools with a deeper understanding of their significance. The gorgeous photo-filled book contains information on how to get to the best pools, accessibility, facilities, swimmability, what to expect when you get there, things to do nearby and safety. Along with the stunning photography, unique and detailed maps of the areas are included. It includes tips on where is best for families, picnics, romantic dips, sunsets, sunrises, training and learning to swim. There are black and white ink illustrations of the marine life found in the intertidal zone and their relation to the tidal pools. The health benefits of cold-water immersion and the necessary safety, gear and guidance to safe swimming in cold water are valuable for the rising trend of cold-water swimmers.
