Message: [QUOTE="8893, post: 1786282, member: 93"] Moonstone is the next beach to the east over from Green Hill, in between Green Hill and Matunuk. I have walked it a few times but it has been closed every summer since we've been going there because of the Piping Plovers nesting on the beach. Yes, it's my understanding that that used to be the nude beach. We didn't see another soul the few times we've walked it, and it's pretty rocky, as are most of the beaches right around there except for Green Hill Beach itself. And as for why Green Hill Beach is different, again what I've been told is that: (a) it is protected by Green Hill Point; and (b) they truck in tons of sand every year to replace the sand that leaves due to erosion. I have definitely seen the signs of serious beach reconstruction there in certain years. [/QUOTE]
