FYI, it's called Fort Island Beach and it's a nice man made beach that's part of the Citrus County Parks system.
Warning, try to avoid low tide because it's very shallow and the sand bottom turns to grasses not too far out. No big deal if you're floating around with a noodle or raft.
We were there last week and the water was about 88*
There are signs there that prohibit animals on the beach. But a "twenty something" woman with short blue hair just let her dachshunds run free when we were there. I guess she couldn't read, or didn't think laws were meant for her. The signs do list the county ordinance.
Well, she got really nasty when told to remove the dogs by some of the beach people.
She used the "service" dog routine as a comeback along with lots of vulgarities.
Also went to Lori Wilson Park in Cocoa Beach recently and there's a lot of washed up sea vegetation on the shore and some in the water. I guess it's from the hurricane earlier this month. Ocean temp was around 85*
