This wooden slatted Fencing is called a sand fence. Its function is similar to a snow fence used along highways in the north to control drifting snow. The sand fences provide:

  • Dune erosion maintenance
  • Coastline preservation
  • Vegetation preservation improving natural erosion control
  • Preserve and mark out sensitive areas and preserve habitat ecology
  • Control of the blowing sand (or snow) across highways or airport runways
