People are forgetting our previous summers. Our coasts have always smelled like dead fish every summer. About the algae bloom, green waters actually attract more tourists because those waters look more beautiful in pictures. Bacterial infections just make us stronger by naturally selecting the strongest Floridians among us. Some people just watch too much CNN, snowflakes.
Apparently you're on the top shelf Kool-Aid there Irene....

So, if you are disturbed by naturally occuring red tide that has been going on for centuries that be worsening because of man made environmental toxins and water releases from Lake Okeechobee, it might be time to consider the Atlantic Coast of Florida.

There are lots of nice spots in the stretch of coast from Vero Beach through St. Augustine that may not be on people's radars.
We are worried about green algae right now.

On the Atlantic coast our algae concern is in our estuaries not on our beaches.We have lagoons and tidal marshes that have restricted tidal flow from man made structures like causeways, bridges and dredging spoils from the intercoastal waterway. Broward County had algae blooms in its lagoons in the past. I dont think they have had one this year. A local fishing columnist is complaining about less flow into the Halifax River due to bridge construction so we could end up in a similar situation as Broward in a few years.

The Atlantic does get warm. It is 82 degrees today, very pleasant considering we get a breeze off the ocean.
