MacMasters Beach is subject to increasingly severe erosion risks, making it a priority for action in Council’s Gosford Beaches Coastal Zone Management Plan (2017).

We have prepared a draft design for protection works at the southern end of the beach. The purpose of the temporary works is to help protect the MacMasters Beach Surf Life Saving Club from coastal hazards while further investigation into long-term management options can be undertaken.

The draft designs were created after listening to feedback from key community groups. The design includes rock bag armour units to be installed to protect and stabilise an 80-metre section in front of the surf club between the steps down to the ocean bath and the vehicle access ramp.

We encourage you to review the draft design plans, complete the survey and provide any feedback you may have.

This project is jointly funded through Council and the NSW State Government’s Coast and Estuary Grants Program.
