The beach at Sea Island, GA. Photo and enhancement by Chris Duffy
I’m wondering what this beach must look like by now, what with all the hurricanes of late. My husband said that an association he’s familiar with was supposed to have a meeting there last week, but had to cancel. I hope it’s not too badly damaged. I believe they already dump tons and tons of sand on them to keep the beach erosion from destroying their tourist industry. Where do they get all that sand?

Lovely picture. I do hope those trees are still standing. beach restoration costs a fortune too
:cry: :(
They dredge it up from further out on the ocean floor. That’s what Marvin told me, anyway.
Counting the days here :heartbeat: :heartbeat: :heartbeat: :heartbeat: :heartbeat: :heartbeat: :heartbeat: :heartbeat:
Can’t wait to see sister pics from Austin! I was born in Savannah and did you realize the GA coast hasn’t had a direct hurricane hit since the late 1800′s.
Nice photo. I’ve heard that about 6 feet of beach have been lost. they get the sand from the ocean.
