Listen "Episode 8: Eagle Head Bay"
Episode Synopsis
In Eagle Head Bay, access to the beach, coastal trails or roads, and the protective qualities of wetlands is being eroded. In this episode, we learn about the intersection between coastal development and coastal access and what happens when fights over coastal access and environments bring communities together, and tear them apart.
