Desert Oases, Turquoise Waters and Harbour Dips: 'Places We Swim' on Their Fave Spots

Desert Oases, Turquoise Waters and Harbour Dips: 'Places We Swim' on Their Fave Spots

Author: Broadsheet February 19, 2024 Duration: 23:11

"We knew we wanted to do a trip, we didn't know we wanted to do a book" 

In 2016, writer and content producer Caroline Clements (Broadsheet’s founding editor) and her partner, photographer and environmental scientist Dillon Seitchik-Reardon, quit their jobs to begin a search for Australia’s most beautiful beaches, pools and swimming spots. The result was their book Places We Swim: part travel guide, part photo essay and part cultural study. The popularity of their first book quickly led to a second: Places We Swim Sydney and the couple will soon publish their third title Places We Swim California. Caroline and Dillon join the podcast to discuss their favourite swim spots both locally and abroad.

Every other Tuesday, Broadsheet Sydney: Around Town offers a quiet conversation with someone shaping the city's character. This isn't about headlines or trends, but the people behind the places and ideas that define daily life here. You might hear from a chef who quietly reimagined a neighborhood's dining scene, or an artist whose work changes how we see a familiar street. The discussion could just as easily turn to the craft of a local distiller or the vision of a small shop owner whose taste influences what we wear. Hosted by Broadsheet, each episode is a deliberate look at the intersections of food, art, fashion, and society, revealing how creative minds build the culture we experience. Tuning into this podcast feels like pulling up a chair at a corner table with the most interesting person in the room-the stories are specific, the impact is tangible, and the focus is always on the human element driving Sydney forward. It’s for anyone curious about the why and the who behind the city's vibrant surface.
