The "China Wreck" is the partial remains of a late 19th-century wooden sailing ship, with a cargo of china plates and cups, and miscellaneous articles. This site is believed to be the wreck of the D.H. Bills, a 158'-long wooden-hulled barkentine topsail schooner that sank with a cargo of British-made earthenware during a storm in March 1880.

The Clermont was at one time the world's largest dredge. She was sunk in a storm while under tow on January 8, 1927. Today she sits upright on a sandy bottom, partially intact, rising 15' off the bottom. Some of the dredge pipes are visible in the sand off the starboard side of the wreck. Divers have recovered several interesting objects from the wreck such as deck prisms and bricks from the boiler stamped "Weideimer".
