Red Tide Persists in Southwest Florida

Red tide continues to affect our coastal areas, killing hundreds of fish and causing respiratory irritation for many individuals.

The FFWCC also has a FAQ page that addresses everything from why red tide occurs to swimming safety to eating seafood in an area affected by red tide. Click here for answers regarding red tide.

Hopefully this red tide bloom will not last long so we can enjoy our local beaches and fish and wildlife can flourish!
