I'm sure this gets asked a lot here, but I'm new so bear with me. What is up with the seaweed? We have been visiting Destin in late August for about 16 years. Only in the last 5 or so have we encountered what we have come to call the "seaweed sludge" problem. I just talked to a friend who returned from Destin yesterday and she said the water was "icky". We will be arriving on August 21 and I am really concerned that we won't be able to enjoy the beach we fell in love with all those years ago. Is this a manmade problem? Were the first 10 years that we visited an exception and the gulf has now returned to what is "normal" for late August?
