For your protection, relatively safe access to the sandbars on the lifeguard protected beach will be marked with black flags. Swim between the flags and stay in line with them on the sandbar. When the black flags are down, do not attempt to go to the sandbar. Onshore winds cause waves. Because ocean winds vary, waves change from day to day.
All waves deserve respect.
Body surfing and swim fins are allowed in the lifeguard protected beach. Do not try to ride waves that are too forceful for your level of skill. To escape the wave's great force, duck under or retreat from breaking waves. If you are riding the wave in some fashion and are thrown off. The protected beach may be closed if exceptionally strong surf is present.
