Any talk about grooming Castlecliff Beach needs to go wider than just saying Whanganui District Council shouldn't clear sand away, councillor James Barron says.
During the workshop that preceded the Coastal Restoration Trust conference in
Whanganui on March 9, coastal scientist Jim Dahm said the best way to capture windblown sand was to use a spinifex dune.

An annual spend of $50,000 to shift sand around on Castlecliff Beach is "dumb" and people who want it changed should tell the Whanganui District Council, councillor James Barron says.
The long-time problem of windblown
sand at Castlecliff Beach became a focus for the Coastal Restoration Trust conference's free workshop Working with Nature on Tuesday, March 9.
Before leading the 70 participants out into the dunes, Castlecliff Coast Care co-ordinator Graham Pearson said the council spent about $40,000 a year on shifting sand and driftwood off the swimming area by the Surf Club, only for westerly winds and longshore drift to bring it back.
