The video below captures recent algae growth…..

at our Juno Beach site—an operational factor during this period of intensified environmental variability. As we've shared in prior updates, conditions at Juno Beach are the most challenging we’ve seen in 17 years. Elevated surface wave height and powerful nearshore currents—sometimes alternating, sometimes combined—are currently limiting safe and effective exploration.

Recent data confirms the Gulf Stream is shifting closer to Florida’s coastline, driven by warming trends and changing ocean dynamics. This shift brings warmer, more energetic water inshore, resulting in increased algae activity. While naturally occurring, these blooms can wrap around equipment—reducing operational efficiency and requiring periodic intervention to maintain momentum. Fortunately, based on historical patterns and current observations, we expect the algae conditions to last only a few weeks.

At our Melbourne Beach site, this same Gulf Stream movement can push through periods of clearer water. We’re actively using these alternating windows to deploy our Sand Shark™ handheld device, accelerating scanning coverage across a broader area of the site. This is exactly why Seafarer’s operational model emphasizes a flexible, multi-site approach—allowing us to stay productive and targeted even when one site presents temporary limitations.

We continue to monitor conditions at Juno Beach and will return at the next viable opportunity. In the meantime, meaningful progress continues at Melbourne Beach, as we remain fully committed to efficient, high-integrity exploration.
