Before you read the levels

  1. NOAA scores long runs of shoreline. Beaches near Cancún that sit in the same run get the same level even when they look different on the ground.
  2. A level is about sargassum offshore that could arrive. It is not a view of the sand and not a forecast.
  3. Each beach page adds the last 14 days and the month-by-month record.
