Meet the Founder of Red Tide Guard
David Dawson
Founder & CEODavid Dawson founded Red Tide Guard® with a clear belief: a beach vacation should feel effortless, not uncertain.
With more than 20 years of entrepreneurial experience, he recognized a growing disconnect between coastal conditions and the decisions families are asked to make when planning time on the Gulf Coast. Red Tide Guard was created to bring clarity to that gap.
Rather than relying on technical data or alarm-driven messaging, David built RTG around something simpler—calm, informed guidance that helps people understand what to expect and where they’ll feel most confident.
His background in economics and business informs a practical, measured approach to coastal risk—one that prioritizes real-world experience over complexity.
Today, Red Tide Guard serves as a quiet layer of intelligence between changing coastal conditions and the families who rely on them—helping ensure their time at the beach feels exactly as it should.
He still spends as much time as possible on the Gulf Coast with his family, where the idea for RTG first began.
