Good advice Jeff-we have been here 4 weeks of our annual 6 weeks and spoken with 2 people that have brought their valuables to Mullet beach and had their valuables stolen. Three men went into the water the other day and told their companions they would be right back. They went back and their bags had been stolen. I take $40 cash a day with me and hide it in the umbrella-so far not a victim. I do not take ID etc with me. By the way the weather has been unusually warm and we do see the usual bad guys lurking in the lots at many of the beaches.
