## Resource

Adelaide’s beaches are getting a massive sand boost this September, with up to 90,000 cubic metres being dumped at West Beach and Henley Beach South to battle relentless coastal erosion. The sand, sourced from an underwater site near North Haven Marina, will be delivered by barge and naturally spread by waves — part of a $19 million state-wide coastal protection plan. Without intervention, West Beach loses 90,000 cubic metres annually, putting roads, homes, and infrastructure at greater risk from storms and sea level rise. Environmental approvals are in place, with strict monitoring of water quality, seagrass, and noise. Beaches remain open, though you’ll spot dredging activity. Looking ahead, a major 400,000 cubic metre restoration is planned for 2027, followed by annual replenishment based on ongoing data — a long-term strategy designed to future-proof Adelaide’s coastline.
