A NEW beach lookout structure in Singleton will be dedicated to the memory of shark victim Laeticia Brouwer.

Singleton residents Leon and Julie Brouwer tragically lost their daughter in a shark attack in April last year while on holidays in Esperance.

The family has been working closely with the City of Rockingham and local building designer North Coast Designs to plan and build a new beach lookout at the main carpark at the end of Singleton Beach Road.
