Sargassum Seaweed on Pompano Beach
Seasonal seaweed accumulation is common along Florida’s east coast, especially during periods of strong onshore winds. At certain times of the year, large amounts of seaweed may wash onto the beach, and conditions can change quickly with the tides and weather.
The City of Pompano Beach continues to clean the beach regularly, even during periods when seaweed returns soon after removal. The City contracts with Beach Raker, a beach cleaning and environmental services company, to provide beach cleaning services seven days a week.
Seaweed levels can vary from season to season. Scientists continue to study the causes of increased seaweed accumulation, and several factors may contribute, including wind patterns, ocean conditions, and increased nutrients such as nitrogen and phosphorus entering waterways from stormwater runoff, lawns, farms, rivers, and canals.
Beach cleaning schedules may also be affected during sea turtle nesting season. To help protect sea turtles and their nests, beach cleaning operations cannot begin until authorized turtle monitors have inspected and cleared the beach in accordance with environmental requirements. As a result, cleaning may begin later in the morning, often around 9:00 a.m.
Because some beachgoers arrive before cleaning operations begin, seaweed may still be visible early in the day. The City appreciates the public’s patience and understanding as crews work to maintain the beach while also protecting the coastal environment and nesting sea turtles.
