A natural cycle

Tweed Sand Bypass studies show that sand bypassing operations have had no impact on Fingal Beach conditions. Beach conditions change as part of the natural cycle of coastal erosion and beach rebuilding, as well as variations in the amount of sand moving northward around Fingal headland from Kingscliff Beach.

Erosion at Fingal Beach is part of a natural cycle of behaviour that has been occurring since before sand bypassing begun in March 2001.
