are the ruins of a resort that a hurricane destroyed back in 1992.
The resort was built of cement and iron rod yet the trees are growing right through the cement walls in places.
Even the bathtub was built out of cement.
The community building had a huge fireplace and a arched cement roof.
There were a lot of fireplaces throughout the complex many used to heat hot water by running the water through a series of pipes within the fireplace.
Now, the jungle is slowly reclaiming the buildings with trees and flowers growing inside of the buildings and even in the cracks of the cement.
Back on the remains of the jetty, you could see that cement was
expensive so they used anything they had on hand to backfill the cement with. An interesting place to visit.
You're not far from Spanish Wells, a favorite of Roger's brother Don and his wife, Carole. Don sailed there in a former life; now they take a plane and stay in a cottage on the beach. Gorgeous area!
