The House of Refuge is a local historic building built to help the survivors of shipwrecks. It is located by an underwater reef just off a barrier island. There were many catastrophes due to this hidden peril. Survivors would swim to shore and then be stranded without food or water, nor a means to reach the mainland. In current day it is an active museum. The surroundings are breathtaking. The ocean crashes, the wind blows and you get a feel for the isolation that occurred before it was built.
