  1. all good. and also, lol, watch out for some of the creatures’ defense mechanisms when the sargasso washes up on shore! Yes! Such as, the fire bristle worm! Yikesies! And, the snippy crabs in the sargasso washing up on shore! 😅 but also, leave the sargasso piles on the beach which help stop beach erosion.

  2. for decades the local authorities bulldozed the sargasso coming into Galveston. For decades people wondered why the beaches were eroding and getting smaller and smaller. Finally it was recognized that taking out all of the sargasso in the “name” of clear, pretty beaches for the tourists was actually causing the erosion to get worse. Finally, they stopped bulldozing the sargasso and let it start piling again to help rebuild the beaches because it holds in the sand. Hey, tourists still go to our ugly Galveston beach anyway!
