Beaches hours extended

Effective Monday, May 4, the open beach hours will be extended to 6 a.m. to 8 p.m. Guidelines will still need to be followed to maintain social distancing.
Walking, running, biking, hiking, fishing, swimming, surfing and taking care of pets are activities which will be allowed on the beach during these extended hours.
Sunbathing, laying out towels or blankets, chairs, coolers, grills and groups of 10 or more are still prohibited at this time.
Some beach accesses are not conducive to safe distancing. Beach goers should use a mask at these accesses and do their part to keep a safe distance from others, even if it includes using a different beach access.
Beach goers are told to use extreme caution in the water, as ocean rescue staffing is limited.
