The trader SS Dicky ran aground on Queensland’s Sunshine Coast in 1893. In 2015 the wreck was removed from Dicky Beach for safety reasons.
I probably should have categorised this post as ‘No Longer Point of Interest’ but it is a lovely beach!

If it hadn’t been for our relatives taking us to see it we wouldn’t have known it existed.

I didn’t know it had been removed, what a shame it was a very photogenic and sculptural thing.

Surely just a sign to warn that there is wreckage on the beach would have done the trick. Like the beach at South West Rocks, it’s like a treasure hunt there looking for objects in the sand.

When I first saw the photo I thought it was a sculpture of a ship. A pity they didn’t leave it there.

Some folks wouldn’t know beauty if it slapped them in the face.
