Johnsons Beach is special because of its natural character. What should we protect or restore? How can we encourage enjoyable activities while looking after dunes, vegetation, wildlife, and the coastline?

Don’t remove the big tree near the bbq. Don’t change the beach, keep it natural. Don’t widen the road. Bring back the miniature train.

Do no works on foreshore, there is an over abundance of concrete in Penguin and little that is more natural left.

There is a ramp and steps so leave the rest to nature. No more concrete or close buildings. No more car parks. Limit off leash dogs in summe

Don't widen the road onto the beach. Leave the natural grasses and stones. We like it the way it is. No bright colours. Natural toned seats
