Dune Restoration

Dune restoration involves protecting and repairing sand dunes, which are natural barriers along coastlines. These dunes help prevent coastal erosion, reduce flooding, and provide habitat for wildlife. Restoration efforts may include planting native vegetation to stabilize the sand, constructing barriers to prevent human and vehicle damage, and repairing eroded areas. By maintaining healthy dunes, communities can better withstand storms and rising sea levels, preserving the coastal ecosystem and protecting property. It's a key part of managing and conserving our shoreline’s natural defenses against environmental threats.
