Has the sea ever been warmer? Three scorching heatwaves and sea temperatures are balmy enough for even for the most timid swimmer, average temperatures were reported to be up around five degrees last month.

Searing heat calls for serious cooling off and last month’s eye-watering temperatures saw thousands of us flocking to the refreshing breezes and a dip on the coast, makes you glad we live on an island!

Get cracking – there’s still just time to book a late deal to the coast for Easter! With the epic new King Charles III England Coast Path now officially ‘open’, fill your days with coastal walks, tuck into fish and chips and enjoy the very best of spring nature by the sea.

Happy days - the first shoots of spring are appearing, birdboxes are bustling and half term’s just round the corner! Even in the shortest month of the year, there’s plenty happening on the coast. If this winter’s left you the slightest bit low, banish any hint of blues at the Broadstairs Blues Bash, 18-22 February. Head to the Kent town for refreshing walks along seven bays and choose from around 100 gigs across 20 venues. Or hop across the Solent to the Isle of Wight and join the National Trust to step into the calming beauty of Newtown Nature Reserve for a free, guided birdwatching walk on 7 March, book ahead.

With a snowballing number of light trails, dazzling displays and Christmas markets sprinkled all around the coast, why not embrace the season, present shop in-person, gluhwein in hand, and enjoy some festive holiday cheer!

Even a getaway of three or four nights can unleash new energy, giving time to break the routine, pack in a new adventure and enjoy some indulgence, enough time to recharge mind and body. So, if a longer break is off the cards this summer, plan a quick escape, it’s hassle-free and easy to do spontaneously. From seal-spotting in Essex to a calming retreat in West Sussex, maritime heritage in the Tees Valley to ziplining on the south coast, with this year’s sizzling temperatures, nowhere beats a break to the sea.

This year, ditch the unrealistic resolutions and dive into a year of health and happiness on the coast! Whether it’s a gentle stroll on the beach or an immersive plunge in the waves, even a couple of hours of fresh sea air, or blue space wellness, can lower stress and improve the mood by raising serotonin levels.
