This State House video froze...!
History of Deveauxs Bank, is it's a long walk to the North West side of Edisto Beach, SC. There are Zero roads. You have to walk past the Edisto State Beach Park 🏖️ and keep walking🚶🏼♀️miles, to get to the inlet. If it's high tide, you can't cross, if you are on foot. So twice a day, every 6 plus hours, at high tide, there is no way to cross over or get back. During WWII, our military used this bank for target practice.
It had since rebuilt naturally. Since the Army Corps of engineers have been throwing sand, (million dollar beach Renourishment) on the beach ⛱️ and is talking about a Seawall, between this and that the the inlet beach has been deminished, washed away. This is the same a your neighbor putting "riprap" boulders on their beach front property. The washout will now affect your neighbors property! This is why I told SC Coastal Management, in the late 80's, No thanks! This was after our beach front neighbors wanted to build up their front yard beach lot, with boulders. Looking at the Ocean, 118 Palmetto Blv., the house to our left had major wash out issue during a storm, because they have boulders on their left side. I said, "no" because it would cause a wash out of sand on our property. The same is true for Deveauxs Bank, which is also to the left of us. All beach front property washes out between May, June, July, August... Leave it alone, It will rebuilt itself naturally. BTW, I was told by my retired military father also a physicist and engineer, about the bombing of Deveauxs Bank and how building the natural nodes on the beach are affectted. And, through a lifetime of observation, 15 years living and working on Edisto Beach.
Great place to fish🎣.
