What this means on the sand

Sargassum is a floating brown seaweed that drifts ashore from the Atlantic in pulses, heaviest from roughly May through August. Light levels mean scattered clumps you can walk around; heavy levels mean thick mats along the waterline, a sulfur smell as it breaks down, and tougher entry into the water.

ShoreScore folds this reading into Treasure Shores's overall 0-100 score alongside live weather, surf, UV, and official water quality testing, so one number tells you whether it's worth the trip.
