Conclusions & Recommendations
For ten years, the Surfrider Foundation has collected information on beach access, surf zone water quality, beach erosion, beach fill, shoreline structures, beach ecology and
surfing areas. These beach health indicators are designed to help us evaluate the condition of our beaches
and the coastal environment. Our two primary conclusions are that beach health
indicator information is still very limited and that the information we do have
points to serious problems that our beaches are facing.
