Crews began replenishing the first segment of Navarre Beach from Beach Colony to east of the Navarre Beach Pier. Depending on weather, the renourishment will likely reach the eastern boundary of the Navarre Beach Marine Park around May 9, then start at The Pearl of Navarre Beach and Caribbean Resort Condominium around May 10 advancing westward. Monitoring for turtles as well as shorebird and seabird nests will continue throughout the process.
