Welcome!
Our special beachfront issue is in celebration of one of the hottest summers we have enjoyed (or in some cases, endured) for many years. Browse through the magazine and you’ll find a wide variety of stunning waterside properties in the UK, USA, New Zealand, Australia and Thailand. There’s something very special about the wide, open space of a beach, whether it’s located on a tropical shore or a wild, windswept coastline. I’ve personally spent numerous happy weeks exploring the UK’s coasts as well as those much further afield. However, what’s even better than simply visiting such places is owning a permanent or second home in close proximity to a beach. This opens up a whole new lifestyle filled with activities such as open water swimming, wind and kite surfing, kayaking, fishing and generally taking in that wonderful sea air. Only this morning I was leaving for the office and the tide was flat calm, creating the most gorgeous reflections and gently lapping against the beach opposite my house. As the temperature was already soaring, the lure of a quick, refreshing swim was almost irresistible. However, I managed to desist, consoling myself with the fact that this evening some friends and I will take our boat to a nearby island for a barbecue – and, of course, dive in for that highly anticipated swim.
