The Sandman Cometh.
From June 5th through June 15th,
Beacon's Beach received 130,000 cubic yards of sand as
part of the San(d) Diego Beach Sand Project.

A sand
barge vacuumed sand from outside the kelp beds and then
used a pipe to deposit the clean sand on our beach. It
was disastrous to marine life such as skates, starfish,
and sea snails, while to tourists and seagulls, it's a
beach bonanza!!!! See pictures on how the sand has changed
