Edie Gelles, Cocoa Beach real estate broker and surfer, came across a large flag a few years ago on the beach made out of seaweed and seashells. The flag impressed Gelles, and he decided to continue the tradition for the last few years  building a large flag on the beach with sea shells and seaweed, and if he can't find seaweed he uses natural mulch.
