In 1715 SPanish ships sank near here and lost MILLIONS in gold and treasures. Much has been recovered and is now on display in two museums. The other Museum is the Mclarty Treasure museum (see it under my "general tips"). The McLarty is more historic. This Mel Fisher museum also shows recovered gold!
