By adding sand where it’s needed most, the South Australia Department for Environment and Water helps protect vital infrastructure, making the coastline stronger against storms.
Sand will be delivered to West Beach via the access ramp just north of the Adelaide Sailing Club and distributed along the beach from the ramp to an area just north of the West Beach Surf Club.
Since July 2024, more than 100,000 cubic metres (m³) of external sand has been delivered by truck to West Beach. A further 100,000m³ is on track to be delivered by the end of June 2025.
This important work will address erosion and keep Adelaide’s metropolitan beaches at healthier levels for everyone to enjoy.
