From the reward of a post-surf brunch to enjoying a lazy lunch by the shore, these delicious recipes will evoke memories of time spent by the ocean.

Whether you’re chasing a wave, reaching for an endless summer, or simply answering the call of the ocean, this book of bright and fresh recipes perfectly captures the spirit of the surf and soothing effect of time spent by the water. Sun-soaked breakfast recipes are presented in the Rise & Shine chapter, such as smoothie bowls and Corn Fritters with Smashed Avocado. For something vibrant, yet light at lunch, head to Veggies, Salads & Sides and take a beach-side break with bowls of Ouzo Watermelon Salad or Sweet Potato, Smoked Mackerel & Grapefruit. When the day calls for re-fueling with some tasty plates in between the surf, All-Day Dining includes Fish Tacos with Chipotle-lime Cream and Grilled Halloumi with a zingy Jalapeño, Lime & Tequila Relish. Gather round the grill to cook delicious food to share from Beachside BBQ, such as Grilled Lobster or create Sunset Suppers of Thai-steamed Snapper or Sunshine Laksa. As you drift into the dusk, savor desserts that celebrate crisp, ripe produce such as Lychee Sorbet or Yogurt Panna Cotta. Fresh, luscious, and creative, these flavorful recipes are inspired by cuisines from the best beaches and surf spots around the globe including Australia, California, Hawaii, Thailand, Indonesia, and beyond. So grab your board, or lazy lounger, and graze on these delicious dishes from sunrise to sundown.
