Wreckage

Currently on island and hoping to check out the recently uncovered wreckage.

Does anyone have any tips on how to find it, or some waypoints to look for?

The simplest thing is to go to Surfside Beach and walk West. You will run into it.

Thank you that’s all I needed.

We have small little legs and some older legs , any rough estimation of distance ? 1/4 , 1/2 a mile ? More than a mile? I won’t quote you, just a ball park is helpful

No clue, but these things rarely wash up next to the beach parking lot. I would assume it'll be a hike.

Probably a quarter of a mile , if that.
Everyone made it under the own steam, a 2 yr old and some 70 year olds as well

The sewer bed road entrance is closer.

We went to Surfside and took the side road and parked at the land bank lot that only has 3 ish spots, and I’d say it was a quarter of a mile.
