First post here ...
Looking to create a beach on 3/4 acre pond that is almost full.
Just wondering what kind of sand to use. Local Gravel pit here has what they call FA1, also any other input on a building a beach would be great.

Thanks

Clean sand they (quarry) will know what you mean.. other stuff will turn your feet colors.. Also put in some kind of barrier down In the water about 12-15' from bank/waters edge to keep your sand from washing away down into the pond..


I believe in catch and release. I catch then release to the grease..

PS- I didn't do either of those things and my beach lasted 3 yrs before I had to get another load of sand..
