The cemetery at Tibeau on Carriacou.

Due to sand erosion this beach is slowly disappearing in the ocean.
As a result the graces as well drop into the sea, a terrible sight.
Unfortunately there is not a lot that can be done, it's to late.
Most graves have gone forever.

Sand mining was one of the causes for this disaster.
Rising levels of the oceans also attribute to this situation.
