Stinapa is monitoring the whole thing and it was done with Stinapa's permission. I think what we really should be worried about is whether or not the changes to date are a prelude to further development of the areas adjacent to the beach in the form of another hotel and quasi-privatization of the new beach and limitation of access from locals to tourists. A bunch, even a lot, of swimmers and snorkelers near the shore do not worry me because I will be down below and on the reef, and generally not in the shallows near the surface. Nevertheless, I admit that the concentration of urea might go up a bit near the beach.

The fake beach has a 1 foot wall blocking it off from the natural beach. It's basically a place for people to lay out in sunshairs.

So, how is CoCo Beach working out now that it has been open for nearly a month?

Well, so how has Coco Beach worked out? Any reports from folks at Den Laman or Sand Dollar?

My wife and I will be staying at Den Laman in late February and will report back, but would love to have an idea before we go if anyone's stayed there recently...

Is CoCo Beach plopped down at the Front Porch entry site? If so this sad news for the reef in that area and worse news for divers. Hope I a wrong.
Having been to GC many times over the past 40 years and BON only 4 in the past decade, most recently earlier this month I see no signs of BON becoming like GC. I am not putting down or promoting either. They are different islands altogether and both have their pluses and minuses and different offerings for the visiting diver.
