Maharees Conservation Association

The Association was formed in 2016 following the extreme stormy winters of 2013 / 2015 / 2016 where the coastlinewas battered by huge swells and strong on shore prevailing winds.
During the winter of 2015-2016 the council were summoned over 15 times to clear the roads from wind driven sand which had become inpassable.

It was clear that the dunes were taking an enourmous impact and were the only barrier protecting the community from the wrath of the winter storms.
