About the host
Hosted by Nicola Spencer
I have lived locally in Poole with my husband and two daughters for over 7 years. The area is blessed with outstanding natural beauty, award winning beaches and is one of the top places in the UK for watersports. My family are generally found on or in the water regardless of the weather! We love swimming, surfing wake boarding and water skiing.
