Calls to fill holes with sand are unlikely to be effective long term, and warnings to non swimmers are advised. Parents should ensure holes are filled before leaving, while debates continue on beach obstructions and possible additions like pools near the jetty. The article urges protection of the majority's access to a safe beach and cautions against changes that restrict beach use.
