[0014] The beneficial effects of the technical solution are: 1. The present invention provides an ecological restoration method suitable for sandy beaches in coastal scenic areas. The method combines polyurethane-bonded aggregate slope protection with vegetation planting to effectively repair damaged shore sections and enhance the stability of the beaches. The polyurethane-bonded aggregate slope protection, as a new type of plate-type slope protection, is made of mineral aggregates bonded by polyurethane adhesives, and is divided into vegetation areas and wave-breaking areas. Through appropriate engineering measures and vegetation restoration, it can become a habitat for aquatic plants and animals without affecting the landscape of the coastal scenic area, thereby improving the vegetation coverage rate of the sand dam and land behind it, and effectively protecting the sand dam and land behind the sandy beach under extreme weather conditions such as typhoons and large waves, thereby achieving the goal of improving the stability of the ecosystem in the restoration area. This restoration method integrates disaster prevention and mitigation effects, ecological effects, and landscape effects.

[0015] 2. The present invention provides an ecological restoration method suitable for sandy beaches in coastal scenic areas. The polyurethane bonded aggregate slope protection has good integrity and adaptability to deformation, can resist wave scouring in extreme weather conditions such as typhoons and strong waves, and protect the safety of the sand dam and land behind.
