Hurricanes Matthew and Irma in 2016/2017 caused this part of the coast to split from Hunting Island, creating an own little island called Litte Hunting Island. The area is under constant change. The dead or dying trees in the saltwater, also known as Boneyard Beach, provide a filming set-like scenery. A great photo spot and quite lonely, too!

An impressive video of a walk through the area can be found here (sufficient to view the first couple of minutes):
