The ocean has always invited questions. Why do the tides breathe in rhythm with the moon? How do stories form from water, wind, and light? What connects a coastline to the heart of a traveler, a scientist, or a poet?
Where’s My Sandy Beach is a coastal journal for the curious mind. A space where science, history, and literature meet the sea. Here, curiosity drifts between worlds: the factual and the poetic, the visible and the remembered.
Explore Sea Lab, where waves, reefs, and weather patterns reveal the science behind the sea. Visit Geo Lit, where writers and poets share how the ocean shapes their stories. Browse Coastal Notes for short reflections and features from shorelines near and far. Subscribe to Beach Beats, a quarterly field guide and newsletter that combines regional history, coastal flavors, and science in motion. Each issue highlights a different coast and invites readers to explore, taste, and learn with the rhythm of the tides.
Every page is an invitation to linger, to learn, to wonder—to feel the slow pull of the sea. Because understanding the coast is not only about maps and measurements; it’s about how it helps us see the world, and ourselves, a little differently.



Where’s My Sandy Beach is a creative project exploring the science, history, and stories of the sea.
