Hidden History: Maritime New Jersey

What stories hide beneath the sand and surf of the Jersey Shore?

An estimated three thousand shipwrecks lie off the coast of New Jersey, but these icy waters hold more mysteries than sunken hulls. Ancient arrowheads found on shoreline of Sandy Hook reveal Native American settlements before the land was flooded by melting glaciers over 10,000 years ago. Little-known sea battles raged along the South Jersey shore on the way to independence during the Revolutionary War, and forgotten ships lost in time are re-discovered national landmarks.
