Abstract
    Presented and discussed in this document are the results of a beach monitoring programme in Dominica (1987-1992). Twenty-three beach sites were measured at three-monthly intervals. In 1989, during the monitoring period, two major hurricanes passed close to Dominica. Significant erosion followed by accretion were reported after the hurricanes; however, two years later, the beaches had not recovered after their pre-hurricane levels. Very high average erosion rates were -calculated (close to 1 m per year) and were related to beach sand mining. This programme was carries out within a regional UNESCO/COMAR/COSALIC-1 project "Beach and Coastal Stability in the Lesser Antilles".
