Maintenance of Beaches
Over the years, the Commission recognizing that the beaches around the island are assets to the country, embarked on a sustained programme for the daily cleaning and maintain of approximately sixty (60) beaches, which are used by the general public and visitors alike.
On weekends and public holidays, special arrangements are made, where necessary, for teams of workers to clean the more popular beaches.
Mechanization in respect of the cleaning is minimal and as such, much of the cleaning is done manually due mainly to the actual size of the beach, which makes it uneconomical to mechanically clean the area. Further, access to some of these beaches with equipment would no doubt be very challenging.
