The beach restoration is now complete
Anna
Maria Island beach restoration will take place about every 10 yrs at ten million
dollars each time. WOW!
If you never seen it done it is definitely a sight to see.
They pump
in the sand from a barge about two miles out and are able to do about a city
block a week. The beach will go from its current 50 ft. width to about a hundred
fifty feet wide. For the shell lovers this is a great time to fine sharks teeth
and maybe even some old relics like musket balls - you never know! Our beach's
previous restoration was about 10 years ago .
