| Abstract | This report provides a comprehensive examination of how people in England engage with blue spaces, including rivers, lakes, canals, beaches, coastline and the sea. Using three years of data from the Adults’ People and Nature Survey (A‑PaNS), it assesses how frequently people visit blue spaces, how engagement varies across population groups, and how blue‑space visits compare with visits to other natural environments. |
