Oceanographic, Issue 11

World class writers and photographers bring the wonder of our blue planet to life.

In Issue 11, Finisterre ambassador, big wave surf champion and environmentalist Dr Easkey Britton writes about our relationship with the ocean and the species that live within it.

Explorer Laurent Ballesta shares his learnings on encountering the remarkable grey reef sharks of the Fakarava Atoll in French Polynesia.

An 11 metre sailboat is making a 66,000km journey to reconnect the dots between wilderness and civilisation. What can the crew learn from the remote communities they visit? And, in turn, what wisdom can they leave behind?

As part of Oceanographic Magazine's '20% for ocean conservation promise', £2 from every magazine sold in Finisterre stores will be donated to the charity of our choice, Surfers Against Sewage.
