Before you go

Swim near a lifeguard

Rip currents are the leading surf hazard. If caught, swim parallel to shore until you are out of the current.

Check the water first

Bacteria levels rise after storms; many counties post advisories for 72 hours after rain.

Know the rules

Dogs, alcohol, fires and parking rules differ from beach to beach. Check the posted signs or the park’s website.
