Privately Owned Coastline Makes For Insufficient Public Beach Access

"Nearly 70% of our nation's coastline is privately owned. More than 90% of the Maine and Virginia shorelines are privately owned. These facts make it very difficult to provide adequate public access to the coast in many areas." - excerpt from Surfrider Foundation's State of the Beach 2003 report at http://www.beach.com/stateofthebeach/4-find/index.asp
