Welcome to the Deadman’s Island restoration blog/website.

In recent years this historically significant spit of land that was established as a natural preserve has experienced increasingly rapid erosion along its northern shore. This site is intended to be a repository of information for stakeholders involved and interested in the process of halting, and perhaps reversing this trend.
