Sad to see new rock walls going up at Cox Bay.....what was one of the most beautiful beaches on the coast is rapidly becoming one of the ugliest.....while many communities are moving towards innovative forms of erosion control , three of the resorts on Cox Bay are utilizing techniques right out of the Stone Age !!! Please check
www.greenshores.ca for modern erosion control methods......Greenshores had made a presentation to Tofino District a couple of years ago...too bad these resorts didn't pay attention to the recommendations.......
Many surfers and beachcombers have noticed the changes to the beachscape at Cox Bay......perhaps it is just coincidence that this has happened at the same time as the rock walls have gone up. Extensive erosion has been noted at the Pacific Rim Resort property which along with Parks Canada are the only natural shorelines remaining in Cox Bay.....
