The LCSD calls on members of the public to observe water safety while swimming. People should swim at the beaches only when lifesaving services are available.
Members of the public should stay away from the shoreline during inclement weather, and should not conduct any water sports activities on beaches to avoid causing danger to themselves and rescue personnel. Failure to comply with the temporary closure arrangement of beaches is an offence and is liable to prosecution.
