Beach Safety Update 6/14: Yellow flag
Moderate surf and conditions present.
Be advised- in places along the beach there are very shallow sandbars(we strongly discourage diving into the “surf”), use caution when entering.
Due to surf we had present the last few days there are left over holes in our sandbars. Strong possibility for Rip currents to start pulling this afternoon. Be sure to stay on the sandbars and out of the holes.
For any questions please stop the lifeguard in your zone!
Lifeguards in service: 9-8pm!
We hope everyone has a great Sunday! Catch y’all on the sand
