BEACH SAFETY
Never swim alone. Stay inside designated swimming areas and in the sight of
lifeguards. Don’t swim near piers, pilings and platforms.
Avoid areas between sandbars or near steep dropoffs. Don’t swim in areas used by
fishermen, where schools of fish are found, or where seabirds are diving. Use caution in
murky water. Avoid swimming at dusk, night or twilight. Avoid wearing shiny clothing
and jewelry.
Stay informed of water conditions. Always take note of flags flying on public beach
areas. For tide information, call 251-968-TIDE (in GS), 251-981-SURF (in OB), and 850932-SURF (in PK). Below are the flag meanings.
