This happened here where I sail! No BS, Brandon is a local.

A favorite spot for kiteboarding, Goulds Inlet is at the northeast end of the island. The gator must have been flushed out of the Hampton River by the rains and the nor'easter which pushes the tides up the river...here is the Surfline article:

Wow that could have ended badly glad I'm in the pacific northwest all we have to watch out for are the By-the-wind Sailor jellys witch don't sting, just turn the beach blue

sounds pretty scary--the worst we have up here is the occasional squirel

this is a "neighbor" around the corner

you should see the "kids" on a sunny day (up to about 6 of them all lined up on the bank)

that photo was taken on my cell phone

around 12 feet of lizard there folks

A local DNR guy says the gators can stay in salt for a week to ten days, and get a little nasty out there. I think I collided with a horseshoe crab today, nice gash on foot...

Watch out for the kids...actually they probably don't want any of us

played with the dolphins today...
