Abstract

This paper presents ancient and contemporary coastal engineering structures which are relatively unique to Australia. While aspects of these structures or similar structures occur elsewhere, their development or evolution within Australia has been globally unique. The following classes of coastal structures are discussed: indigenous fish traps; ocean pools; wave trap beaches; fixed trestle, jet pump sand bypass plants; and groin modifications for surfing.
