I live in Navarre. The Pensacola news last night said that Gulf Shores Beaches were closed yesterday, but Orange Beach was open. The oil looks to be headed more east. The beaches are getting cleaned quickly. The reporter said that the area was hoping to be open this weekend.

How is Navarre? We were there a couple of weeks ago and REALLY enjoyed the quiet aspect of it ... minus the seaweed. Nasty.

The beaches in Gulf Shores and Orange Beach are open and have always been open. You can sit, walk, build sand castles, etc. The water is currently closed to swimmers in OB (double red flags) and swimming is allowed in GS (yellow flags) but under a swimming advisory. There is currently no complaints of oil washing ashore on any of the beaches. There are some scattered tar balls coming in, and no one is complaining of the smell right now. The cleanup operations have been refined and seem to be working very well. If/when anything washes on the beach, it is cleaned up very quickly.
