The Dauphin Island East End Beach and Barrier Island Restoration Project wins a 2017 Best Restored Beach award!

The beach restoration was a non-federal project which combined recreation, habitat protection and storm damage prevention into one project. It restored almost one mile of highly eroding beach by placing 320,000 cubic yards of beach-quality sand on the eroding barrier beach. The restored beach is on Alabama’s only barrier island and provides protection to the Audubon Bird Sanctuary that is an important migratory rest stop that is heavily used by bird watchers.

Additionally, the beach restoration project restored a historically eroding beach that had lost over 700 feet of shoreline, so that portions of the restored beach are almost 400 feet in width. The newly restored beach is now a recreational destination for both residents and tourists. This project combines some of the most important features that we look for in a restored beach project.
