Abstract

Palm Beach is a four kilometre beach located on the Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia. Since the 1960’s there have been numerous significant erosion events that have threatened infrastructure and impacted on recreational beach amenity. As this section of coastline is highly developed with low, medium and high-density developments and infrastructure, there was significant risk to coastal assets, tourism and recreational amenity and to city image and reputation. This Paper discusses the planning, design and construction of a project that provides both effective coastal protection and benefits to the local community, including enhanced surfing opportunities.
