They want to make parking lots with concrete walls on the beach in Cumbuco.

First, it's potential danger for someone to die, and second it destroys the beauty of the natural beach.

If you sit in Duro beach now on the weekend and look up the beach, you will see busses parking there and no more nice view....really sad.

Two have been build now, bit they want to bulid it on every beach access!

So, pls help and sign so we can stop it!

After they installed flood defences including a concrete wall at my local beach, a kite surfer was killed impacting it on launch. While flood defences are necessary, walls and rocks do kill. A good friend of mine almost had his foot amputated after the council erected wooden fence posts to protect the dunes. Another launch failure.

specially because they want to take down all illegal beach huts to keep it more natural...and then put concrete onto the beach.

Sad. They should involve more the international community before realizing plans. It's more knowledge and discussion will lead to something better at the end.
