    Abstract
    This report investigates the costs of beach congestion, with an emphasis on surfers and general beach goers. The estimates of the costs of beach congestion are used to assess the cost effectiveness of measures to reduce congestion. Specifically, we seek to answer the following questions: * How does beach congestion affect beach visitation rates of surfers and general beach goers? * Does the benefit of reducing beach congestion exceed the cost of measures to reduce beach congestion on the Gold Coast?This report investigates the costs of beach congestion, with an emphasis on surfers and general beach goers.
