About Sunset Beach
To the uninitiated, the scenic view from Sunset Beach may be interrupted by the sight, just off the beach, of the surviving hulk of the S.S. Atlantus, an experimental concrete ship launched in December 1918. Local birders, however, know to look carefully, as the ship provides a great roosting place for seabirds and shorebirds. Located at the mouth of the Delaware Bay, Sunset Beach offers some of the best sea watching on the east coast. It is well worth scanning the water for half an hour at any season, and particularly after tropical storms, hurricanes, and northeast storms. From Sunset Beach (New Jersey Audubon) web page
