How to see it

Above water and inside the horizon from Oak Island Lighthouse, 4.3 km (2.7 mi) away, so on a clear day it can be seen from there, and CoastFinder puts a label on it.

Point your phone at the real thing. The CoastFinder app draws this pier over your live camera view from any beach, pier or boat near Cape Fear, with its distance and height, and it works with no signal.
