LONG BEACH and SAN DIEGO vs the OCEAN! 3,600 FEET of Bulkhead Shored Up, Sand Berms BREACHED From Long Beach to San Diego, Southern California is holding back the Pacific with sand berms, timber and borrowed time. On the Long Beach Peninsula, about 3,600 feet of bulkhead has been shored up and a dredging job of more than eleven million dollars is under way, yet the king tide of Monday, October 26 still crossed the berms, and at Mission Beach in San Diego a berm breached. The highest predicted tides of the season begin on November 24. In this video, we ask how long Southern California's walls of sand and timber can hold, from the three storms that stripped the Long Beach Peninsula and the gap in its breakwater to decades of fixes, the shored up bulkhead, the dredge, the price of a real fix, the crack under the Pacific Coast Highway, the breached berm at Mission Beach, the lunar cycles behind this winter's tides, and the dates still to come.
