11/7/23 Report - Treasure Coast Beach and Small Surf For a While. Excavations at Alamo Produce Finds of Various Periods.


Written by the Treasureguide for the exclusive use of the Treasure Beaches Report.

North of Inlet

Yesterday (Monday) Russ sent me this report, including photos, showing the continuing development of one Treasure Coast Beach.

Visited a few areas this morning north of the inlet and
a lot of the sand had washed down and smoothed out.

A few spots the footprints and tire tracks where 4-6 inches deep. Didn’t bother.

Tried a local tourist beach and found a few miscellaneous items. 

One area had a large fishing net with the rigging washed ashore...

Alamo Relics.


Archaeologists at the Alamo uncovered musket balls and ceramics from the Spanish colonial era at a dig last week...

Archaeologists discovered two musket balls, multiple types of ceramics, glass, gunflints, European earthenware and debris from creation of stone tools.

One glass jar was found completely intact, as seen in photos on the Alamo’s Facebook page...

Ceramic fragments from the Spanish colonial and Goliad eras were discovered, the preservation update said, meaning the artifacts come from a wide range of time periods.

The Treasure Coast weather has calmed down a bit.


Surf Chart for Vero Pier Area from SurfGuru.com.

So we'll have about a week of small surf before possibly another increase.

Notice that the wind is still north today but will be doing some switching.

The high tides are going to be good and high today, but the low tides won't be very low.

Good hunting,
