   Sorry for the late reply. I was waiting to find out where this photo was taken. It was approximately 3.5 miles west of Hwy. 59.

   Hello Dean,
   Alligators inhabit much of the area along the Gulf Coast. However, it is very rare to see them on the beach or in the Gulf waters. They typically stay near the marsh areas around our back bays. Don’t be alarmed. We posted the photo because it is something we rarely if ever see in this area.
