That’s a big girl!!!! WEIGHING IN AT 217lbs.!!!!! This gal was foul hooked this morning. She had two rods and lots fishing line and even a portion of a tire trailing behind her. We cannot be thankful enough for our staff and a few local anglers for stepping up to rescue this big gal! Our staff had to go swimming with the Gulfarium stranding team to get her in! But we got her loaded up and taken next door to receive care from the Gulfarium CARE Center staff. She is on the road to recovery!!!

It’s nesting season……. WHAT CAN YOU DO?!?!

Leave NO TRACE!!! Fill holes and take your trash with you!!!

Use red and amber flashlights on the beach at night!

Fishing?

Reel up!!!

Accidentally hook turtle? DO NOT CUT THE LINE! On the pier, let our staff know immediately and call FWC!! Work slowly towards the beach until the stranding team arrives. Follow our staffs instructions! Clear the rail and give them room to work.

The future generations of this species needs our help.

If you come across nesting sea turtle or a turtle making it’s way to shore, admire from afar and LEAVE IT ALONE!!!!!! The future generations of sea turtles are way more important than your snap and Instagram stories!!!

If you see someone harassing a turtle or roped off nest CALL FWC IMMEDIATELY!

Every species of Sea turtle we see is ENDANGERED!

Our staff works hand in hand with the Gulfarium and is trained by them and FWC on how to rescue these creatures and get them to the help they need!

It’s just another day at the office for us! But we are proud to do our part.

Quick trip down to the condo to check on things. The June grass is hit or miss this time of year. It can be horrible one day and gone the next. It can be horrible one condo down but clear where you are. We found clear water in the front of the condo the whole time we were there. The gulf water was a pleasant 86 degrees. Yellow flags.

We ate at Burrito del Sol and got Smoothie bowls at Sunset Bowls in downtown Fort Walton Beach and can highly recommend both places!

Two reminders:
1. Reminder to sign out of your accounts on the TV’s when you leave. We signed out of some open Netflix accounts, etc.
2. Locked owners closets are where owners keep their personal possessions. Unfortunately, someone broke into ours, ruined the door in order to get in, and took many of the things we had in there. I know most people would never do that. Just a friendly reminder that nothing you find in the condo should go home with you, with the exception of books. Feel free to take a book you are reading and leave one you have finished. Everything else you find in the condo should stay for the enjoyment of others after you!

If you need things like beach towels, boogie boards, sand toys, sunscreen, etc there is Target, Walmart, Publix and more that are short drives plus many also do online ordering and delivery (check out Instacart).

Here is a picture from the balcony.

Have a great time on Okaloosa Island!
