The water can be hit or miss with fish. Been there several times now and only once was there alot of fish activity.

Battery Burchstead had several huge cannons on the beach, we used to play on in the 1970s. I always wondered what happened to them. But I found out. The beach eroded and they're out in the water.nnIn these two pictures, taken in 1970, you can see us playing on Battery Burchstead, when it was on the shore. Look closely at the circular wall on the beach.nnToday, it's about 100 yards out in the water. I drew a red arrow to indicate the circular wall, same one seen on the beach in the old pic.nnSo you can still visit it!nnIf you take a boat out there, look for what's left of this huge cannon just under the water. Take a pic for me, and post it here. I wonder if it's totally rusted and gone by now.

Didn't know it had an actual name battery Burchsred. We've been calling it The Big Rock for probably 40 years now all the children's three-year-old rite of passage was jumping off

Absolutely beautiful, great place to scuba and see dolphins and manatee.

We love going here & jumping off the rocks. Be careful though its slippery climbing up & the rocks can be sharp. Water shoes of some type are recommended.
