Is the water safe to swim in around Anna Maria Island? What the locals know about why you shouldn't panic...

Click HERE Details: I cannot count the number of questions I've received, from soon to be travelers to ask about the local status of "flesh eating bacteria"  What they are really referring to are reports of Vibrio Vulnificus infections, or Vibriosis, a rare bacterial infection that can be contracted from eating raw or under-cooked seafood, or from exposing fresh open wounds to warm salt water. Vibrio vulnificus is not the same thing as Necrotising Faciitis which can be caused by many strains of bacteria, including Vibrio Vulnificus. Vibrio Vulnificus infections happen only rarely, with two confirmed cases in Manatee county residents in 2016, zero in 2015, and one in 2014, according to the Florida department of health. Of these there were no deaths. So while we are all far more likely to expire from a car accident, or even the flu, than from a Vibrio Vulnificus infection, there are still some precautions we can take.

Kayak and Paddle Board Eco Tours- Paddling with Max and the Mangroves

Image
I left the office today for a couple of hours to go paddling with Max. Sometimes you can do things like that when you live in paradise, especially when you work for a company named Fun! Seeking peace, I usually go out on the water alone. I'm almost fearless in the waters around Anna Maria Island, I fear only underwater missteps onto crustaceans, and mud. But Max knows everything about these waters, and the incredible creatures that live below and above them, and after 7 years here, I still have so much to learn! Max is our Eco Tour Guide at Fun and More Rentals, and he's got Anna Maria salt water in his veins.  He's a true native son, who somehow never lost his sense of adventure and awe for his own back yard.  At 25 his patient nature and inherent reverence for these waters and the life teaming all around belies the age of one much older, while his face belies the age of one much younger ( I would certainly card him for beer.)    I was hoping to spot some dolphins
