This is in reply to the beach access at Beachside Condos. I just got back from there Saturday night and the walkway was open when I left. However, the water was very murky and there was lots or debris and dirt on the beach (not its usual white sand by any means) and with the heavy rain Seagrove received Friday more beach erosion occurred and about two to three more feet of land eroded from Beachside Condos. This is very scary because so many condo conplexes (like Emerald Hill Condo Complex, Dune Villas, and Leeward II Complexes) are just hanging in the edge of the beach and to see more erosion occuring makes me worry that it won't be long until we won't see dirt and debris on the beach but entire beach condo conplex colapsed on the beach. Is anyone else worried about this and how can those buildings be saved.

Hmm. Well, that's not great news.. we're headed down Friday. At least the walkway's open.. hopefully we'll be able to actually use it!

Does anyone know what the conditions for beach access are on Blue Mtn Beach Drive near Gulf Point Road? Specifically, at The Redfish house.

I believe this is the closest, although illegal, access near Gulf Point Road. I am sure that Donna, one of the owners, would be pissed if she knew that people were destroying her property. I have PM'd her but I don't think she is logging in.

The access at CR 83 is the closest ligit public access at this time, and it is only another 100 meters away.

Just received a PM from Donna, and she is greatly upset that people are doing this to her property. She is too kind to say so, so I will say it for her.
KEEP OUT! Donna would probably add, "please."

Thanks. I had seen that photo on the board earlier and agreed with those who said "what were they thinking?" I did not know where the photo was taken.

Does this mean SJ is getting a new ladder for his collection?

Where are they going if they are climbing up the dune? I think they were overserved and the skinny one threw the keys and the others missed and now they are digging for them! BTW...who took this pic and what means were used to get their attention? Chips, coupons for McDonald's, or hopefully one of those air guns with biodegradeable ammo????

She is too sweet to give me the okay, but, after receiving confirmation on her thoughts of the issue, the ladder may be gone tomorrow if I can work it into my schedule. :lol:
