  • What is Ocean Postings?

Ocean Postings is a non-profit organization that gathers data from other sources on beaches, harmful algal blooms, fish kills, and other water related hazards. We then post them on this website in one easy to access format. Current health hazards will be posted regularly. Additionally, in the future we plan to offer a weekly or monthly newsletter.
