I just read in NWFL daily news that there are traces of it showing up in Walton County.

Just came back from the beach at Watersound and there are dead fish everywhere.....noticed it in the air yesterday.
Do you have any photos so we can see the extent of it?

Red Tide is definitely here. Went to WaterColor yesterday and walking over to the FOOW restaurant, I suddenly felt it in my throat, tasted and smelled it all at once. It is very distinctive. Coughing fits until I went indoors. Seems to be low level at this point.

Yes. At Seaside we started coughing yesterday as have others. Alright on bikes this am. Alright at pool. Had to leave beach. Suspected red tide. Walked over to beach before heading to 45 Central paella night, coughing. But not a hurricane. We will adapt. Ellen

Hi there, just popping in here to see if there has been any conversation about red tide. We had a beach vacation ruined at Sanibel in August because of red tide. I was also sick for 3 weeks after due to the respiratory stuff. We planned a trip for next Friday through Tuesday in hopes of redeeming that awful trip. Then I see one of my friend’s Instagram pics and she is showing dead fish. I am borderline freaking out. It’s our anniversary as well. Can someone tell me if we are dealing with the respiratory stuff only or if also dealing with dead fish and how bad it is??? I wish I had purchased trip insurance. It was beyond HORRIBLE in SW FL and I will just be so upset if it ruins this trip too. We are staying in Seacrest. Help??
