There are lounge chairs not 15 feet from the water. If I had an inkling that gators were a serious concern, I wouldn't even bring my child to that beach. But there it is, a beach for guests to visit, rest, etc.

I don't look at that beach and think "danger".

I look at that beach, think I'm in Florida, and there's zero chance in hell myself or my kids (if I had any) are getting in that water. To me it's only common sense there are alligators in there. You can't control an area that big.

Whether there was adequate signage or not will be the debate (some reports say there are alligator signs, some reports say there aren't), but knowing where I am in the world, there's no way i'm letting my kids in there, let alone a 2 year old later in the evening.
