Can anyone shed light on what these old cables might have been for over on Magazine Beach?

They are about 4 or 5 feet apart, go out into the water I'm not sure how far, and disappear into the sand on the beach going the other way.

The outer coating (which I think is plastic now covered in marine life) had worn away in one spot, so I could see it was what looked like 2" thick stainless steel cable.

Maybe used to tether something?

A dock? A swimming raft that's no longer there?

I meant to ask some locals whilst I was there, and I was too busy having fun and I forgot lol

I wasn't able to get a closer photo because my phone doesn't have a waterproof case, and I'm clumsy.
