Boscombe surf reef underway...


Visible signs of the construction of the artificial surf reef at Boscombe, Dorset, are now apparent. The making of the geo-textile bags that will give the reef its shape is now underway at a "secret" location in Poole, while the image shows sand that will be used to fill the bags being stockpiled on the beach, just to the east of the pier, after having stones and other debris removed. I placed the word secret in inverted commas, as the location is supposed to be closly guarded, but it seems that everyone I spoke to on the seafront knows where the secret location is!
