We all enjoy visiting our beaches, so try to keep them safe and in good condition:
- put your rubbish in the bin provided or take it home with you,
- leave rocks and logs alone. You might be disturbing an animal's home,
- leave animals and plants alone,
- keep off the dunes, especially dunes with plants growing on them, and
- don’t collect driftwood, coral, mangrove seeds or seagrass.
