Ballast pile on the beach or no?

While a beach ballast pile could be possible, I dont think this is that. It only measure about 80 feet and you woul dhave to take into account the natural spreading over time, so that would have been a much small ship. Second, looking at the beach over time, you are looking at infilled beach from the breakwater to the south of it, which has been expanded over time. The surface sand you are seeing now didnt used to be there. I would guess its most likely some left-over rip-rap from building the wall.

Lastly, wouldnt that beach be off limits anyway? Wouldnt matter if the Atocha was laying there, we couldnt touch it.

If that's an east coast snap, there is no naturally occurring rock and I'm not sure of what wall you would be referring to unless that was a snide remark about some walls in progress elsewhere ...
