The fish were cleaned up that morning, and we’ve had no dead fish or smell since. The gulf water is a normal color, and people are swimming in it.



We are very grateful that we’ve had none of the terrible problems that they’ve had to the south of us, and we are hopeful this will continue. We are offering free early departures and free cancellations to anyone who is concerned about the red tide.



Please let me know if you have any more questions. And feel free to email me if you would like to check again before your arrival."

Yes I agree. I think we have decided to just go. The Sandpearl has a lovely pool and as long as there is no smell we can cope.

Hotel owner mentioned it was up to the Panhandle in parts. Locals really not happy.

My mum is up in Santa Rosa (near Destin and Pensacola) and said they have signs of the red tide too.
We visited St Augustine this year, loved it but wish we’d stayes longer as we only did one night
