I get daily text updates about beach conditions. Lately they have added "marine pests present". What exactly does that mean? Is it typical this time of year and will these pests go away before my two week stay in July?

It almost always means jellies. Can change daily.

Also remember that the flags are determined for the whole county - so if there are jellies by Seacrest - the flags will all reflect that from Seacrest to Miramar Beach Seems they usually go on the safe side as well.
