The Stone Harbor beach replenishment project draws closer to its commencement! Barring any adverse weather conditions, the project is now scheduled to start on Friday, June 2nd, marking the anticipated arrival of sand on Stone Harbor beaches.

The first phase of the project will start from 78th Street in Avalon to tie into the existing berm, and the sand placement will extend southbound until reaching 87th Street.

Weather conditions remain a determining factor, and although Saturday evening’s forecast calls for poor weather, if dredging starts on Friday, it may be possible for the contractor to work through Saturday’s conditions.

As the beach replenishment project progresses, further updates will be provided to keep residents and beachgoers informed about the project’s status.

Please note that this information is subject to change based on weather conditions and ongoing developments. Stay tuned for more updates as the project gets underway.
