See, I told you guys that May is a terrible month to visit. :rotfl: The above picture was taken yesterday at Seaside. The rich Split Pea Green color is the June Grass in the water, also visible on top of the beach near the water's edge.

Isn't this a delicasy in Grayton - when added to organic, juiced Wheatgrass? :lolabove:

We were at Rosemary Beach from May 13-20, and I can attest to the presence of the June grass. By the end of the week, it was looking much better. Kurt, the picture you posted of Rosemary Beach looks much worse than when we were there. When was it taken?

It's a good thing JB has already taken his vacation or we'd never hear the end of it. :funn:

That is nasty looking! I do think I've ever seen that at the beach. If we have, it has been so little. The worst stuff we have ever had to wade through from the shore out about 20 feet was some thick dark stuff that tangled around our ankles. It appears to be the item below in the link. Here is a link to what we saw. But it was darker looking to me than this one piece in the photo.

What you probably saw was Sargassum Grass seen in the above photo.
