The recent dredging of the Bimini Bay-Key Royale channel by the West Coast Inland Navigation District pumped enough material to the designated shoreline by the Anna Maria City Pier to create a beach estimated to be about 500 feet wide that extends into Tampa Bay 100-150 feet. A few beachgoers last week discovered the location, including Misty Logan, front left, of Apollo Beach, and Emily Toal of Indiana. Islander Photo: Rick Catlin
