Produce a detailed written description of a dreary scene outside a coastal area with pilings and a walkway.

Sucked into the muck below, the pilings supporting this section of the Esplanade have sunk causing it to slant downward until it is only a few inches above the waves. Every so often a good wave smacks the pilings and sends enough spray shooting over the walkway to drench the feet of anyone unwary enough to be caught in this spot.
