If all wave energy is absorbed, the beaches is in a balanced condition. Conversely, if the beaches is in an unbalanced condition, erosion and sedimentation will occur which in turn will cause damage to the coastal line. To overcome the problem of erosion and sedimentation that occurs usually the first step that must be done is to look for the causes of erosion and sedimentation, so that by knowing the cause, then you can determine how to overcome them. To find out what approaches can be used to overcome erosion and sedimentation problems, a survey and study of erosion and sedimentation that occur on the beaches must first be conducted. This research was conducted by first analyzing the characteristics of coastal sediment grains then analyzing the predicted erosion and sedimentation on the beaches and calculating the magnitude of longshore sediment transport using empirical equations. Result of the research shows that Padongko Beach Mangempang Village Barru Regency has sedimentation with total longshore sediment transport was 201.71 m 3 /years, and Desa Aeng Batu-Batu Beach Galesong Utara Takalar Regency has sedimentation with longshore sediment transport was 169.79 m 3 /years ## Keywords - Sedimentation - Longshore drift - Erosion - Sediment - Sediment transport - Coastal erosion - Geology - Sedimentary budget - Hydrology (agriculture) - Geomorphology - Geotechnical engineering --- Sumber: Discover Unhas — RIMS Universitas Hasanuddin.
