If you're into water sports, sustainability and looking after our oceans is highly likely to be on your mind A LOT. You experienced first hand the changes in our oceans that have been happening over the last decades. It's our playground, we couldn't live without it and try to protect it as much as we can. But it's a huge task that often might seem too big for us as individuals to even make the smallest dent in. You hear it everywhere, "buy sustainable products", you see all these swimwear companies changing to recycled fabrics. But is it really as simple as that? Does this actually mean the product you buy is more sustainable? We spoke to textile engineer & Zealous Clothing founder Marie,...
Being a female-run business offering women-powered surf labels, we naturally love surf destinations geared towards ocean-loving women. We covered Chicks on Waves in Portugal on the blog in the past, but across the world there are some other unique destinations that have made a name for themselves in the last few years. One of them is Salti Hearts in Bali. We spoke to founder Yeni Canelon about her retreats, what inspired her and what they have to offer for you. Yeni Canelon, founder and host of Salti Hearts Retreats Hi Yeni, could you tell us a little more about yourself and how you started Salti Hearts? My name is Yeni Canelon. I'm originally from Venezuela, but grew up in the Caribbean between...

It's been a while since we highlighted a surf destination. Combine running Seafoam with my dayjob as a supply teacher, living by a beautiful coast and some major life changing events in the recent years, has seen me at home more than I used to be. So I called in the help of Sofie Forton, Belgian surf lover and passionate traveller, to share her experience and beautiful photo journal of travelling in Sri Lanka. Would you like to share more about a recent surf trip with other ocean lovers on here? Get in touch via info@seafoamsurf.com Almost a year ago we, my friend and I, decided it would be nice to spend the holidays in the sun and warm water. After a little search...
We aren't all lucky enough to surf warm water all year round. Honestly, I absolutely love the colder season in the Northern hemisphere.It often brings the best and cleanest swells, with the added bonus of not another soul (with exception of seals) in sight.My best surfing memories are from the midst of winter, wrapped in the thickest neoprene with only my face having to brave the real elements. Everyone has their preferences, but I prefer wearing a bikini under my suit for hygienic reasons and ease of changing afterwards without flashing and blinding anyone in the car park. Heading in for a winter surf at my local break. Not all bikinis are comfortable to wear under neoprene though.Ideally there...
