Re: No tourists but large amounts of trash on Lady's Mile beach

We always take a bin liner when we go to our favourite beach area and spend a few minutes picking up other people,s rubbish ,[have watched many times as they just stand up and walk away after their picnic leaving empty takeaway containers and bottles ] .sadly to say mainly local people .
