Anyone interested in the geography of Port Hacking will enjoy reading this report on disc, available free at the reception desk at Sutherland Shire Council chambers. The disk contains a massive trove of historical photos and views of the natural features of Port Hacking and the catchment area, including the Royal National Park. Of particular interest is the thorough research into the movement of sand and the history of dredging on Deeban Spit.

Port Hacking – Past and Present of an Estuarine Environment
The work was released in February 2014 and represents a synthesis of three decades of work by A/Prof Alberto Albani of UNSW and George Cotis, a long time activist and friend of the Hacking. Both authors have extensive experience in the management of coastal regions and estuaries. Highly recommended.
