Sarasota County beaches to open Apr 27

[Mudflap]

Sarasota beaches to open (restricted use) on Monday the 27th of Apr. The beaches will only be open for “essential activities” and there will be no laying on the beach, sunbathing, or hanging out with a cooler and a tent. The parking lots will also be closed. So my CZ21 and I will take a hike!!!

Metal detecting is of course an essential use.

We're supposed to be doing the same Monday morning at dawn. I don't know where they think people are going to park with the lots being closed. I would imagine the residents in that area aren't going to be too happy with all these people crowding their neighborhood and taking up all their parking.

Maybe difficult to keep 6' apart with all the detectors out there LOL. No one except a handful of walker/runners/bikers have been seen on the webcams. So its been pretty policed. They never mentioned ...... swimming and from what i could tell had out NO SWIMMING flags. It appears to be mostly designed for those living near or on the beach because there sure aint much access other wise. Id be careful parking in some of the restaurant or shop spots dont know how testy they might be even if they aint open.

If the parking lots are closed, how do they expect anyone to drive to the beach & park.
That makes no sense and is just stupid!
The hotel/motel owners could be renting parking spaces.
I always park at a little Mom&Pop hotel. Being, that they can't do any
short term rentals, I'm happy to support them with money to park.

I'm not sure yet, what's happening in Broward, Dade, Palm Bch county.
I won't be happy about that "No Swimming" mess.
Too hot to NOT get in the water!
Technically, I'm wading, not swimming.

I could do a day trip, to Marco Island...
