We continue to track red tide blooms in Southwest Florida. Two spots in Collier County show low to medium concentrations of red tide, but there are no signs of fish kills Wednesday.
Collier County Pollution Control found medium concentrations at Vanderbilt Beach and also found a very low concentration of red tide off Barefoot Beach.
Rhonda Watkins, with Collier County, confirmed they received one reported case of respiratory irritation down near the Park Shore area.
“From a beachgoer at Vedado Way, which is down in the Park Shore area,” Watkins said. “I talked to our beach rakers this morning, and they said the beaches are all clear.”
