There’s an embodied essence that people that love the ocean emanate. It’s the essence of the ocean itself.
From the gentle caress of the ocean’s embrace, to the surrender in the serious grips of her wildest force, The Ocean Diviners are the people that have come to know the ocean, as the ocean themselves, as a wave is inseparable from its source.
It’s those of us that share an innate knowing of her gifts, her energies, that dance at her edge, and immerse themselves in her hold.
The Ocean Diviners is a tribute to this blessed tribe of individuals and wisdom seekers. It’s epicentre of focus is The South Coast of New South Wales, Australia, and covers the shorelines of our most wondrous and divine oceans.
This book is a documentation of heart and sea.

Paddle For Empowerment
DECEMBER 2022
A select group of Ulladulla Surfers have been selected to face their fears and paddle due east, towards the horizon, for one and half hours. Well beyond the view from land, let alone to the comforts of the carpark and safety for the surfers out to sea, this is an exercise of both physical and mental resilience.
-
Mens Paddle for Empowerment & Peace is the quest by a small number of select men, to draw upon our potential to find courage in the face of adversity together. To communicate our fears and vulnerabilities with each other. To support and love each other for everything that we are feeling and represent. And to ultimately find peace within, for ourselves, for our families, our communities, and for the benefit of all.
Beyond all goals, the motivation for Mens Paddle for Empowerment and Peace is to promote sharing and connecting, through conversations between men about the challenges we’re facing, as we’re facing them, for the sake of generating insights, support, love, wisdom, and happiness.
A raffle fundraiser and community film night run in conjunction with The Paddle For Empowerment raised over $18K for Mens Mental Health in The Ulladulla Region.
