About this site
South Carysfort Reef, described together with Carysfort Reef, can be reached from the Ocean Reef community and from Card Sound through Angelfish Creek. A wall here drops 65 to 80 feet (20 to 24 metres) to a sandy bottom.
Five cannons from the 1800s rest in 15 feet (4.6 metres) of water about half a mile north of the tower, and two large anchors, thought to be from an 1800s frigate, lie in 30 to 40 feet (9 to 12 metres) of water four hundred yards north-north-west of the tower.
