It was the site of the ferry scene in the Truman Show. Also the site of the actual ferry that used to run across the bay.
Old Ferry Road was the site of a ferry which ran across the intracoastal for a few decades. When they closed that ferry, the 10 minute trip from Bunker to Bay Elementary turned into a one-hour drive from Bunker Rd to 79 to 98 to 395. I heard some kids would swim across and walk.
