While the island receives visitors year-round, its peak months for visitation take place during summer when millions of visitors flock to its 32 miles of beaches. This heavy visitation period also coincides with the Gulf’s heaviest time for seaweed, which typically washes up on Galveston’s beaches May through August. The Galveston Park Board of Trustees, which manages the island’s public beach parks, does not remove seaweed from the beach because of its environmental benefits. Instead, it brushes seaweed away from the shoreline to create easier access to the Gulf for beachgoers. While some visitors don’t seem to mind the seaweed, a portion of vocal visitors find offense to the sight and smell of seaweed, labeling Galveston’s beaches as “dirty” in social media posts, complaints to the Park Board and other communications. In addition, for legal and budget purposes, in 2012 the Park Board altered its seaweed policy to no longer provide seaweed maintenance services to beach areas outside its jurisdiction. This change most drastically impacted the stretches of beach on the East End and West End where beach house rental properties are present.Item Item First Landing State Park (North)(Virginia State Parks, 2015) Virginia State ParksItem Great British Beach Clean 2014 Report(Marine Conservation Society, 2014) Marine Conservation SocietyItem 5 Ocean Safety Tips for the Whole Family(Visit Florida, 2015) Tjaden, LaurenFlorida's main attractions are the beaches, but being aware of some basic safety measures can help keep beach goers safe.Item Beach Management Plan 2011-2016(City of Joondalup, 2011) City of JoondalupItem Coronado Visitor's Guide(City of Coronado, 2012-04) CoronadoItem Pedestrian Signage(2013-04-19) Galveston Island Park Board of Trustees
