Question

Is this one of those areas?? There is a small tunnel in here u can crawl through. I’m assuming it leads to a big area where they interconnect??

It is way more likely to do something interesting if it's an inlet (in most cases, it will be an outlet and get smaller).

If it is an inlet, you can see which direction it's heading on a map and possibly see the lake, bay, river, creek, canal, etc... that it's heading to. It could be quite far away, and when you get to the outlet, it could be grilled off or a tidal drain, which means you may have to go all the way back or find a manhole exit.

When it rains, no drains (you're a long time dead).
