"Passing by on the ICW side" Flagler Beach by grandmaR

Barge and tug

This tug pushing a big barge wanted to stay on the west side of the channel to avoid the wind.

The website of Flagler Beach says "Nestled on Florida's east coat between Daytona Beach and St. Augustine, the flourishing City of Flagler Beach is home to over 4,250. residents! Since its incorporation in April, 1925, Flagler Beach has grown from a sleepy fishing village to a unique seaside community while still retaining much of its original charm..."

Approaching the LB Knox Bridge north of Daytona

We pass on the land side of Flagler Beach on the way down to Daytona via the ICW. We approach from the north through an area known as Fox Cut. The Flagler Beach bascule bridge has been removed and replaced with a fixed bridge, so this is the next bridge we get to on our journey south - it is about 6 miles south of the Flagler Beach Bridge
