Saturday afternoon in the first week of June. A recent storm, last week, washed up tonnes of seagrass, as deep as 2.5 meters. This soon to rot seagrass, will cause hydrogen sulphide emissions with the buildup causing stench and environmental havoc, on the normally idyllic holiday beach.

Storm patterns vary every Winter and deliver different outcomes of this seagrass issue dumped along the Geograph Bay and millions per year have been spent to clear thousands of cubic meters of this weed. Unfortunately this year the seagrass has been washed up on the main tourist beach and restaurant vista of Busselton Jetty location.

Locals said they hope the next expected storms, may help wash away some of this problem...
