Abstract
The wracks of Posidonia oceanica leaves and the “banquette” formation on the sandy beaches of Calabria are one of the most important defence against the erosion processes. The management of the beach-cast sea-grass in Italy has been, generally,realized through the mechanical removal and the transport in dumping of the beachcast material. This system, apparently simple and fast, produces, instead, a net loss of sediments from the sandy beaches and,therefore, a deficit in the sedimentary budget of coastline leading the coastal system to possible shore erosions. The ideal solution is to keep these vegetable deposits on spot so to warrant a positive sedimentary budget, the protection of coastline and the tourist value of the regional beaches to improve tourism in the seaside resorts with bathing vocation.
