Public Beach and Coastal Access Act

The Public Beach and Coastal Access Act is legislation that ensures the public can access and enjoy beaches and coastlines. It guarantees certain rights for people to walk and gather peacefully on beaches, even if private land is nearby. The Act also establishes rules for managing how land is used and maintained along the coast, balancing private interests with public enjoyment. Its goal is to provide fair access, protect coastal environments, and promote responsible use of these natural and recreational resources for everyone.
