A very stiff wind whips up the sand and drives it back inland to form the dunes. A Macro look at the processes. Marram grass has taken hold and forms the first vegetation to strengthen the dune. Coastal Sand dunes in the UK are a special and protected habitat. Home to some protected Reptiles and Amphibians that rely on them. Including the Natterjack toad.
