Dry Docked: A Companion to the Wild Waters Ocean Swimming Journal

Welcome to Dry Docked, a companion to Wild Waters: an ocean swimming journal.

Within these pages you will find a curated collection of ocean-themed literature, film, television, music, podcasts and audiobooks. Download this document and refer to it on the days when you are stuck on land and missing the sea, or when it's better to be curled up with a book, when you're lying in the sun as salt turns to crystals on your skin, or for inspiration on the daily commute.

Each section — Reading, Watching, Listening — includes five of my favourite titles with a brief review, plus a couple of honourable mentions. If you are at the beginning of your ocean journey, consider this an immersion. If you are a seasoned mer-person, I hope you discover something new amongst these titles. I have loved, learned from, and been entertained by each of them.
