The Jacksonville Sheriff's Office said a lifeguard was able to save the woman they said was standing along the shoreline and was knocked down by a current and pulled into it.
"DO NOT go to the beach," JSO said in a tweet.
Although many people have been intrigued by the impacts of Hurricane Dorian at Jacksonville-area beaches, police are asking them to stay away for their safety.
I am just got a report that someone was just rescued from Jax beach. Stop going in the water. Get off the beach. #Dorian

DO NOT go to the beach and in the water to take part in hurricane swells. It is dangerous. Stay off the beach and out of the water. #HurricaneDorian pic.twitter.com/fj5BjASwTd
And here’s WHY we keep repeating the message to stay off the beach. https://t.co/XjdY5TlwjX
