Coastal worlds are variable, rich spaces and places of cultural heritage, leisure and development. In this book we offer a glimpse into anthropological research on coastal and intangible cultural heritage in four countries: South Africa, Namibia, Lamu (Kenya) and Seychelles. The book shares the voices and images of people encountered between 2022-2024. Rosabelle Boswell composed the text and poetry in the book. For her, island and coastal places, offer a poetics and politics that recognizes transmaterial and decolonial relations with the sea. Cultural heritage finds expression in tattoos, boats, food and art. These complex layers of human relations with the sea are sensitively articulated by graphic artist and designer, Rebecca Hayter, fellow anthropologist, Jessica Thornton and photographers: Francois du Plessis and Laetitia Bosch.
