Who owns the beach‪?‬ Let's Talk Coast

Australians are passionate beach goers with many of us believing that the beach is free to all. However, beach access and the right to the beach are not always so clear in Australia.

In our very first episode of “Let’s Talk Coast”, Emeritus Professor Bruce Thom and coastal engineer, Angus Gordon, explore issues around beach management, beach access, private ownership and coastal policy. Both guests bring a wealth of knowledge to the discussion around the question of “Who owns the beach?” and suggest a way forward in protecting Australians right to the beach through national standards.

This episode was recorded on the lands of the Garigal or Caregal people.
