Yeah no shite. I have no idea what this is and don’t care enough about anything to do with 30A to be interested without any additional information given.

I believe it has to do with private properties taking over parts of the beach. So the public and condos/rentals are cramming into small patches, which spill over onto the private areas.
I didn’t watch the video but have heard of the issue going on.

The problem in 30A is the overwhelming majority of renters are renting off beach properties. When these people go to the beach, they are funneled in from a public parking lot to the water through state owned property or a public easement. These funnels are typically very narrow, 50ft or less.
Lately beachfront landowners have been claiming they own into the water. They have mostly had the local sheriff's office's support. Public beach goers have not been able to enjoy the waters edge in front of private property and forced to pile into the public spaces like sardines. In order to cross these private properties to casually stroll down the beach, one must walk through the water, not stopping, and definitely not putting a chair or tent.
In Walton Co, there seems to be a gray area of riparian ownership. I'm no expert but it seems pretty cut and dry in most of the rest of FL, but something sneaky going down in Walton Co that could potentially affect the rest of FL beaches.
