Destin Beaches and Water Update July 28, 2010

Last week when I was staying at the Destin Pelican Beach Resort there was lots of algae and sea weed in the water, however there was no oil or tarballs.

Today my renter Shelly just told me the sea weed and algae is gone and all that remains is beautiful emerald green(almost blue) water and crystal white sand.

Summer is almost over and the beach and water is gorgeous so hurry to book that last minute summer vacation. I can be reached at 731-589-7841(cell so you can text).

2 Nurses From Jackson,Tn Are Currently Renting # 1004

Yesterday I checked on my two nurses who are staying in my Destin Pelican Beach Resort beach front condo.

Shelly told me the condo is just beautiful and house keeping did a fantastic job cleaning up behind my family (we checked out 4 hours before they arrived).

I asked her about the water and she said the beach is beautiful but there is still algae and sea weed in the water. I told her to walk up or down the beach and she would find a section that was clear of this. This stuff appears to move about.

Shelly is booked for 6 nights and I know she will have a ball.

Destin Pelican Beach Resort VRBO Calls While On Beach

I know VRBO recommends an immediate response when replying to inquiries about renting my Destin Beach Condo. However, it seems that every time I am on the beach, I get a call on my VRBO advertisement.

I try to respond pretty promptly but told this lady today it would take me an hour or so to get back online to check my calendar. If you are reading this post, you can check the calendar over on the left for availability.

Today the beach is perfect and the water warm but lots of algae floating in the water.
We were expecting a tropical storm to move in late tonight but it appears the system came apart and only rain and wind coming in later tonight. By Monday the weather should be out of here and a return to sunny skies(like today).

We only have a short time left on our vacation here at Destin's Pelican Beach Resort.

News From The Beach in Destin

My family and I just got off the beach. The temperature outside here now is about 95 but we have a breeze blowing.

To answer your questions about the oil spill and Destin beaches as of July 22, 2010, there is no sign of the oil anywhere although BP has a few guys walking up and down the beach looking for tar balls. I did not see anything in their little nets that they use to pick them up.

There is however lots of sea weed and algae in the water but we still were able to swim and have a good time.

Also the beach is packed behind the Destin Pelican Beach Resort and the parking garage is full. A look at other resorts here does not reveal a full house but there are still several guests visiting the other places. I have a friend who owns a unit in Breakers East condo(4 doors down from Pelican) and his unit is on the rental program. He told me his rentals have almost ceased as have most of the units in his complex. Bob also told me everyone knows that the Pelican Beach Resort Destin is one of the most popular family vacation destinations in this part of Florida.

My unit #1004 is on the rental program and has some availability. Just contact me(call or text) if you are interested in booking my unit for your vacation. My cell number is 731-589-7841.

Tomorrow morning we plan to spend a few hours at the Big Kahuana Water Park just across the street from the Pelican Beach Resort.

Youth Activities Today

Here are the Destin Pelican Beach Resort youth activities planned for today.

9am-10am Free Face Painting by the Tiki Hut
10:30am-11:30am Paint Fridge Magnet $5 (Pelican Pool Side)
1:30pm-2:00pm Free Pool Game (Pelican Pool Side)
3:00pm-4:00pm Blanket Volleyball (Pelican Pool Side)

My family spent most of the day on the beach yesterday. The temperature was 91 and skies partly cloudy with a 10 mph breeze out of the southeast. I am sure this is what is helping keep any signs of the oil spill away from Destin.

Time to go, family is pleading with me to hurry so we can get on the beach. If you are considering a last minute vacation to Destin, now would be a great time to get down here as there is no signs of oil(except suntan oil).
