58 2026 OFFICIAL VISITORS GUIDE Resources SAFETY AND STEWARDSHIP Beach Safety Everyone loves a day on the beach, but keep in mind that the ocean is not only beautiful, it’s powerful and unpredictable. Check tide schedules and weather conditions before heading out, and always stay alert to your surroundings. Watch your step on slippery rocks, loose driftwood and uneven sand. Sneaker waves can appear without warning, surging high up the beach with strong, fast-moving water. Never turn your back on the ocean, and stay off logs and driftwood. Keep children and pets close, and remember that even shallow water can be dangerous due to rip currents. Photo Richard Bacon
