As it has been pointed out, El Yali brook mouth and the lagoon have experienced
drastic changes in their recent morphology due to the effect of the 2010 tsunami.
The destruction of coastal dunes implied an increase in the vulnerability of the
Fig. 8.10 Sights from a camera located on the south shore. It is possible to observe the effect of
the ocean swell between April and August. The image captured in September was taken the day
