DOUBLE RED FLAGS! 4/30/23
SWFD Beach Safety is changing beach flags to double red on Sunday, April 30, due to life-threatening surf hazards and rip currents present in South Walton. π©π©
Under double red flag conditions, it is illegal to swim and boogie board in the Gulf. Violators can face $500 fines and/or criminal charges from law enforcement. π«π
This decision is being made for your safety, as well as the safety of our lifeguards. Stay on the dry sand! π¨π
