The St. Johns County Sheriff’s Office, St. Augustine Beach Police Department and St. Johns County Marine Rescue personnel will patrol the beaches throughout the weekend. Marine Rescue lifeguards will be stationed from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Beach flags indicating water and surf conditions will be displayed. Officials caution that the absence of a flag does not indicate safe conditions and that beachgoers should check with a staffed lifeguard tower for local information.
