We're supposed to go 12/21 - and I have bad asthma, I already have a back up plan in Orlando. Just waiting to see how the red tide is?

Does Marco Island have red tide?

Red Tide is a naturally-occurring organism and blooms begin offshore in the Gulf of Mexico. Winds and tides can move red tide closer to beaches and inlets. You can find red tide updates for Naples and Marco Island beaches here, or by calling the Collier County Red Tide Hotline, 239-252-2591.

That brings back memories. I grew up going to Vanderbilt beach back when it seemed few knew about it and we had it mostly to ourselves!

At Crystal Shores now, no apparent issue with red tide, although the official statement rates it as "slight". See: https://visitbeaches.org/ and choose "South Marco Beach" for current information. Weather is beautiful.
