A yellow flag is placed beyond each blue flag. No fishing or surfboarding is permitted between the two yellow flags. If a pair of black flags is set up between the blue flags, this indicates an area where you can go out the sandbar. Red flags between the blue flags indicate a dangerous seaward current, and water activities between are prohibited. Do not settle in front of an on-duty lifeguard stand or one that is soon to be opened.
Small flags mark a path in front of opened stands.
This area must be kept clear for equipment. Pets and glass containers are prohibited on the protected beach. In the protected area, lifeguards will not signal swimmers toward shore simply because they are in deep water. They will signal swimmers toward shore because they are approaching the sandbar when black flags are not up, because they are in or approaching a hazardous area, or because they are moving too far out for adequate supervision. Handicapped individuals who require special consideration in aquatic recreation may want to use the protected beach.
