December 2007 web article: 'Temporary Reprieve at Turtle Beach, Sarasota, Florida"Storm surges carried away both sand and structure in preceding months. (Note the caved-in swimming pool in front of the house on the left.) The sand was recently replaced and the surroundings repaired.
We estimate the whole problem will recur within a decade. For the time being, however, you can park at Turtle Beach and walk to Palmer Point (Midnight Pass)."
