ship graveyards
Maritime burial grounds
Ship graveyards are places where decommissioned vessels are left to decay or be dismantled.
Some are formal shipbreaking yards where workers strip hulls for scrap metal.
Others are natural accumulations—harbors or coastlines where abandoned ships collect over time: The beach has become a ship graveyard for rusting freighters.
The term evokes both industrial decline and maritime history.
