Beach Restoration Projects Update

May 2, 2025

 

Please note: Only the immediate work area of the beach will be closed for the duration of these projects. The city offers more than 50 beach access paths to enjoy.

Recent unusually high tides washed away some of the newly completed work; however, sand replenishment is in progress. 

For your safety, please stay clear of the construction area and equipment.
