Being near the ocean can have a calming effect on the mind and body. The sound of waves, the smell of saltwater, and the sight of blue water can all work together to reduce stress and anxiety levels.

Activities such as swimming, surfing, diving, snorkeling and kayaking can provide a fun and engaging way to exercise. The ocean provides a natural environment that can make physical activity feel less like a chore.

The minerals found in seawater, such as magnesium and potassium, can help to nourish the skin and promote healing. Saltwater can also help to soothe skin conditions such as eczema and psoriasis.
