This week, project partners at South West Coastal Monitoring have been busy installing two CoastSnap stations in the Newquay area, one at East Pentire, overlooking Crantock and the other on the coastal footpath overlooking Fistal dunes. The CoastSnap stations have been installed to enable beach users to collect images of the location, which over time will help us better understand how they change.

The next time you pass either of these locations, please use the CoastSnap station and contribute toward our learning of coastal processes. If you want to learn more about CoastSnap please visit the Making Space for Sand website and if you are interested to know where CoastSnap stations are currently located, please visit the South West Coastal Monitoring online map .
