Kiptopeke Breakwater
In December 1948, nine McCloskey ships were partially sunk to form a ferry breakwater off the coast of Kiptopeke Beach. After the construction of the Chesepeake Bay Bridge and Tunnel, the ferry was put out of business, the breakwater still protects the beach and provides a home for coastal fish and birds. The beach is peaceful and scenic. You can kayak quite close to the breakwater for some close up shooting, kayak rentals are available along the beach. (Kiptopeke Beach, Virginia)
