It’s been a very rough 6 months or so here on Amelia Island – a tropical storm passed nearby and 2 early nor’easters have wrecked havoc on our normally pristine beaches. Our tour today will show us some of the preparations underway for a large-scale beach replenishment project – moving sand from point A to B, C, D, and F.
Just lookin’ for a little peace.
Dredging and then the pumping of sand on to the beach is expected to start around March 1st. Lots of heavy machinery, pipes, and whatnot over the next 2-3 months. When they’re done our beach will be ready for whatever nature has in store this hurricane season.
Submitted for consideration for the Weekly Photo Challenge – Tour Guide
Thanks, Chris

I hope that you have a speedy recovery. When we lived on the East Coast of Florida, our local Bathtub Beach was often in need of refurbishment after storms.

I think we shared the same bizarre weather here in coastal South Carolina. It’s been quite a year and we’re only in February! Loved your photos tho – making lemonade out of lemons!

Thank you! Yes, we could all use a quiet tropical season this year… and a quiet spring too!
