The usual turn-around spot on my regular walk is at a 'private' housing estate called Parc Eden Roc. I'm not sure how or why it's private but I haven't been arrested yet!
One day in mid October I arrived to find lots of activity just above the beach.
 |
| Piles of wooden stakes... |
 |
| ...and bales of straw. |
 |
| Down on the beach things start to become clearer... |
 |
| ...with diggers creating trenches and other machines pushing the stakes into the sand in rows either side of the trench... |
 |
| ...to be followed by positioning of the bales of straw between the rows of stakes. |
 |
| A couple of weeks later and things are looking complete... |
 |
| ...but not everywhere. There's still work to be done. |
 |
| Five weeks later, the machines have gone and the beach is ready for the next spring tide ('grande marée'). |
