A recent article in the local newspaper got me intrigued. \u00a0The article discussed a place that has a whole bunch of “Concrete sculptures” of different local animals. \u00a0Of course, I had to go check it out \ud83d\ude42 \u00a0Its on the North Side. \u00a0So when you drive from town to the East, head up Frand Sound Road to cross the island. \u00a0At the top, instead of heading left to Rum Point, take a right. \u00a0Then drive maybe 1km (.6mile) Its on the left hand side.<\/p>\n

Here is the spot and you are \u00a0looking for.<\/p>\n

Here are\u00a0the statues. \u00a0They are BIG. \u00a0Difficult to appreciate the size. The top of this guy’s head is probably close to 5ft high. \u00a0Head to tail i’d say at least 10ft long. Impressive work.<\/p>\n

Nice stingray.<\/p>\n

\"IMG_0058\"<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\"IMG_0054\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Even some flying fish \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

Crab was quite cool. \u00a0Its also very big!<\/p>\n

Claudette the crab … get it? \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

\"IMG_0048\"<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0\"IMG_0059\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Even some concrete chickens and chicks<\/p>\n

\"IMG_0062\"<\/a> \"IMG_0063\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Of course there were some of the real thing on hand \ud83d\ude42 \u00a0I suspect someone here feeds them since they followed me around and seemed to expect food.<\/p>\n

If you are in the area or driving around on the North Side (its <10 mins from Morritts\/Reef Resort) and is well worth the stop. \u00a0I am sure most kids would also enjoy this. \u00a0There is no entrance fee – free is always good!<\/p>\n

Here is the newspaper article in case you are interested.<\/p>\n
