It’s drizzling and we’ve just dropped handfuls of plastic wrappers, stray fishing netting and lost hair ties following a beach clean on Croyde Beach, North Devon, but ex-pro surfer Laura Crane is peeling off her layers and running into the sea with a hoot. I’m swept up in her infectious draw to the waves and quickly find myself splashing behind her, into the salty water. It feels invigorating. Crane’s love of the ocean is abundantly clear. After the quick dip, we wrap ourselves in cosy dry robes branded with Seasio, Crane’s new wellness retreats, and pad barefoot back to our glamping site for a delicious stack of pancakes.
Crane says that creating Seasio, a Devon-based and ocean-focused wellness retreat offering a mix of surfing, yoga and hiking, has always been a ‘dream’, ever since she retired from surfing
