THE BOOK OF TIDES

The tide is the most powerful force you will ever meet at the coast — it shapes the land, controls the sea, and influences every adventure on the water. Yet for many people, it remains a mystery.
 
The Book of Tides unlocks this hidden world. With clear explanations, stunning illustrations, and stories drawn from a life of sailing, sea swimming, and exploration, William Thomson reveals how tides and currents really work — and how understanding them can transform your time at the coast.
 
Whether you’re a swimmer, paddleboarder, sailor, kayaker, or simply someone who loves walking by the sea, this book will give you the knowledge to enjoy the ocean with confidence and respect.
 
📖 Inside you’ll discover:
 
Why tides rise and fall, and how to predict them anywhere in the world
How rip currents form, and the simple steps to stay safe
The secrets of tidal streams, overfalls, whirlpools and bores
Inspiring stories of adventure and survival at sea
 
 
This is more than a guide — it’s a beautifully crafted companion for anyone drawn to the water. Once you’ve read it, you’ll never look at the sea in the same way again.
