Virtual Field Trip - Three-Rooker Bar
Three-Rooker Bar is a small, semicircular island that has emerged within the last decade.
The fact that sand has been accumulating at this location while erosion has occurred at other locations demonstrates
the complexity of the coastal processes at work on the West-Central Florida coast. As the island emerged, it quickly
became vegetated, increasing its stability.
