There are many different types of beaches, this depends on the size of the sand grain. Mainly made up of quartz, silica and other minerals, sand is transgressive and comes in many different colours. Our ancestors travelled up and down the South Coast NSW sleeping on the sandy riverbanks and the warm sand at the beaches. Our rivers here on the south coast including the Tuross River is made up of sand which comes from eroded banks. Sand holds our artefacts, ancestors are buried amongst sand dunes, sand is home to many sea creatures. Sand stimulates our senses such as touch, sight, and smell. Sand also exfoliates dead skin from our bodies. Djaadjawan is a ‘dhurga’ word from the Walbanj-Yuin tribe.
