The larger boats go north of FL 30 and I see many others go on either side. Dave R is right about the preferred route.
Dave, I thought that North of FL 30 on the side of Mark is one red top closer to the island and a black top "companion" to the right of it. If those are the two markers you are thinking about, I thought you needed to pass outside the black top marker, or between the red top and the island. I thought the shallowest area is between the two markers.
You wrote that it is 2 black tops and I don't see them on my chart therefore I'm not sure we are talking about the same place.
It is true that passage past markers is not always by the intuitive route. Check the chart.
