Sea · The Saltmarch and the Thousand Isles

The Thousand Isles

The archipelago itself, sailed not walked, channels, shoals, wrecks on every reef.

A closer look

At the threshold

The islands invite a view from the water: a tree, a strip of sand, a reef that changes the colour of the channel. The next island is always visible, but the wrecks make clear that visibility and a safe course are different things.
