More photos of the algae bloom. With the tide in, it is much more evident.
When the boats go through it, they throw up a red wake, red splashes.
Close up, the water is filled with floating blobs of plankton/algae, and the reddest algae floats on the surface. The blobs are suspended in the upper several inches of sea. There are indeed toxic versions of 'red tide', but they say this isn't toxic, and is a natural phenomenon of warm weather and us.
