Hi everyone. I just moved here from the outerbanks. I have been detecting and diving for over 30 years. Had my own salvage vessal for several years, and also worked on many others. I have a master 100 ton license with endorsments. At this point in the game I prefer to hunt on land(knee and hip problems can't take the seas much longer)
I live in Vero Beach now, and have noticed these beaches are not like the bank shoreline - FAR FROM IT. I know about the 1715 fleet, and have seen many artifacts displayed along the highway, and at local parks. I also have done my research, and detected a few times upon arrival. Lot's of junk and trash left on these beaches by people. What a shame. The sand here is nothing like the sand where I am from.
The wife and I went to Ft. Pierce inlet (what a calm inlet - I was in shock and awhhh when I seen it) last week for thefirst time. She was rough on the outside, but the inlet was calm. Sebastian inlet looked a little rough, but nothing compared to N.C. The sand at at Ft. Pierce stuck to our feet. What's the deal with that? Never had that happen before.
No high dunes in the area at all.
My question is - does the water ever hit the tiny dunes here without the help of a hurricane or storm surge from one offshore?
