GCOOS is developing an app, “All Things Beaches,” which will be a comprehensive source for current conditions at Gulf of Mexico Beaches. It will include beach safety information and other resources to help people enjoy their day at the beach.

But we need your help! We need photos of your favorite beaches — and the amenities they have — to help us populate the app. We’re looking for shots of scenery, plants, animals, fishing piers — just about anything you can think of. And we’re even giving out prizes! To everyone!

  • Entries are eligible for prizes if they are received on or before Aug. 31, 2019.
  • Submissions must include photographer’s name, email address and the name of the beach, plus the city & state it’s in. We’d also like you to include an approximate date for when the photo was taken.
  • Photos should be submitted to Chris.Simoniello@gcoos.org.
  • All eligible entries will receive a prize PLUS each month GCOOS will choose a staff favorite and those winners will receive an additional prize. (Non-winning images will be considered again until the contest ends.)
  • Of COURSE you can include pics of your kids/grandkids!
