No, except for West Beach, when lifeguards are present. The National Park does not close its beaches, regardless of water conditions; however, when lifeguards are stationed at West Beach from Memorial Day to Labor Day, the National Park will close the West Beach swim area when high waves or high E. coli levels are present. Lifeguards are not stationed at any other location within the National Park. Call 219-926-7561 followed by prompt #2 for information regarding E. coli levels.
