Pomponette Beach: 400 Casuarinas Threatened for Twenty Luxury Villas?

Cliffs rising over a meter and a half mark the shoreline. This southern coastline is gradually vanishing, yet it is precisely here that a private developer plans to construct 20 luxury villas complete with individual swimming pools.
