Location of Dual Wrecks in Long Branch

Posted by DaveF User icon on 11/30/2011, 12:32 pm

I read that the Adonis/Rusland is off the north tip of the jetty behind the Alphonso Retreat in Long Branch.

Looking at Google maps, it appears there are two jetties behind the Alphonso Retreat, one kind of at the north end of the property and one at the south.

Does anyone know which of those jetties would be the one?

Thanks

its the jetty on the south side of san alfonso. there is a large statue on the lawn,blessed virgin mary if i remember. you line up the tip of the southern jetty with the statue at a 90 degree angle. this will put you on top of the rusland near the boiler. used to dive this from shore and small boat many years ago. they covered a lot of it years ago when they did the beach replenishment project. maybe by now it uncovered.used to take students on this dive from the beach and they loved it. good luck,let us know how it is now.

If I was standing there, I could tell you which jetties the wrecks are between. It's been years since I dove them and even back then the wrecks were for the most part pretty much sanded in.
