Beach dunes are the primary coastal defenses against storm waves. They are naturally made over many years and are far more effective that most manmade structures. In addition, dunes are home to many diverse biological ecosystems which draw the attention of many researchers and marine biologists. Dunes and the wildlife they support, however, are delicate structures. Frequent human interference has put a strain the on the wildlife and physical integrity of the dunes.
