Many people have been washed off this jetty through the years. Back in the day there was only a cable rope keeping fishermen "on deck". Seems today's rail keeps tourists thinking it is a safe place to be on a very rough day. Only obstacle being getting past the waves crashing on the pump house wall. As I walked back up the beach a lifeguard was urgently heading in that direction to close a pedestrian gate blocking access.
Along Florida's Atlantic coast beaches often large mounds of shells are exposed and cleared of sand along the area of the shore break. When the tide retreats many treasures can be found by beach combers- including an occasional silver or gold Spanish shipwreck relic. That is certainly the case in this stretch of beach just north of the Sebastian Inlet.
