Dune Point Surf Bank

Overview
Dune Point is a conceptual ocean-front community that utilizes an 'Artificial Surfing Reef' (ASR) as an economic, ecological and cultural development tool. The community would require 140 to 200 degrees of uninterrupted ocean
swell, preferably in an established urban environment that is exposed to storm swells generated from the southern hemisphere.

Projected Population: 1111
Community Size: 85.0 Acres
Population Density: 13.0 Persons per Acre 
Unit Density: 6.8 Units per Acre
Building Density: 5.6 Buildings per Acre
