Dunk Island Spit - Essential Sand Nourishment Works

Back

Works Notiication from Dunk Island Group. 

Essential sand nourishment works will be carried out at Dunk Island Spit over the coming weeks.

Sand nourishment is a vital measure in conserving the Dunk Island Spit foreshore to combat erosion on either side of the jetty.

Works will include movement of heavy vehicles and machinery.  Exclusion zones will be in place and all visitors to the island are requested to observe directions as offered by the onsite team, or defer their travel to the area.

Boat users are advised to avoid "The Spit" foreshore where possible during this time.

Weather permitting, preparations are expected to commence Monday 20 January 2025 with further heavy machinery arriving onsite Thursday 23 January.  Works will pause over the Australia Day long weekend to recommence Tuesday 28 January.

Dunk Island Group thank the community for their continued support and patience as the regeneration of Dunk Island Spit takes place.
