October 21, 2007 - The fish-kill from the Red Tide has reached Orange Beach. The photo to the right was taken today at 12:02pm at the Cotton Bayou Beach Access. This photo is representative of the entire stretch of beach along the Cotton Bayou Access. We do not yet know how far the kill reaches east or west of Cotton Bayou Beach.A 15 to 20 mph east-south-east wind is blowing along the coast. A north or northwest wind is needed to push the Red Tide Harmful Algal Blooms back out to the open Gulf.
