What is it that entices people to the sea? Poet John Masefield wrote, I must go down to the seas again, for the call of the running tide is a wild call and a clear call that may not be denied. Millions of visitors are drawn to the islands in the northern Gulf of Mexico for the white sandy beaches, the aquamarine waters, a boat ride, a camping spot, a tour of an old fort, or a place to fish.
