This is a timely reminder to the community that while we have lifeguards and lifesavers on patrol, it is important to stay up to date with safety messaging so everyone can have a safe and enjoyable season.\u201d<br>&nbsp;<br>Key safety tips include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Take the time and drive five more minutes to a patrolled beach and swim in between the flags<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If you get into difficulty, stay calm, raise your arm and yell for assistance<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Never run or dive into the water, as the depth can change quickly<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Children should always be supervised by an adult at all aquatic locations<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If you are unsure of the conditions, ask a lifeguard or lifesaver<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Always listen to the lifeguards and lifesavers<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Avoid swimming for at least one day after heavy rain to decrease exposure to stormwater pollution<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Be aware of obvious signs of pollution such as litter, odours and surface scum following heavy rain<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If you\u2019re going rock fishing, be sure to plan ahead &#8211; wear appropriate safety equipment, let others know where you are going and carry a charged phone.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Council Administrator, Rik Hart said both Council lifeguards and Surf Life Savers are committed to supporting a safe season ahead.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAs with past seasons, the goal is to ensure that everyone who visits our beautiful waterways do so safely,\u201d Mr Hart said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI urge the community to keep safety top-of-mind and encourage residents and visitors alike to find their closest patrolled location this summer.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Council lifeguards patrol our shorelines between 9am-5pm Monday to Friday, and Surf Life Saving volunteers keep everyone safe on weekends and public holidays.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During the busy Christmas holiday period the 15 beach locations and The Grant McBride Baths will be patrolled for an extra an hour (9am-6pm) from 18 December 2023 to 28 January 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Council also has a suite of serviced beach wheelchairs available for free hire, along with beach matting installed at several beaches across the Coast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more information and find your nearest patrolled beach location, search \u2019<a href=\"https:\/\/enews.centralcoast.nsw.gov.au\/e3t\/Ctc\/T+113\/cFjPv04\/VVMmH13znw8WW1NJL332g6v4jW1WCq9G53Fw71N4xH9fd3qgyTW8wLKSR6lZ3ntW8BYhSF4M2Z_NW7MkJlY594xYRV3nDsQ19lZKvW8RXK3z5rNn-mV6q_-s2Vhq-CW6qxVPN2TnrPTW59Tk8x9kkTHmW1gyJNx1DT0nPW4vg8FD3B3rPQW28MQ881SyLL4VscLmb7Lr8JmW93kZ2r2Vd4nfW1QP7Hs5r50xZW65FZDS82hc-1W5MZpXP8M0nVtW34CR9w3GLLn-W8h0HYB8TsZdZW5_C0gB5M8FLwW1K8klH21X79mW2QQ7Wr11f36WW15dGPp517tt-W4wG2jF2lxl9PW2l9Tts1bhj8JW1Bghbg2jCBBqN7NdTs_QslWLW29LhCs1-P609W7mkL9x6V11jXW78Q-rX3qPp9Lf27tQN604\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>beaches<\/strong><\/a>\u2019 at <a href=\"https:\/\/enews.centralcoast.nsw.gov.au\/e3t\/Ctc\/T+113\/cFjPv04\/VVMmH13znw8WW1NJL332g6v4jW1WCq9G53Fw71N4xH9dY3qgyTW7Y8-PT6lZ3pZW2MWfCh7kVjqTW8LKXPh33Qyq8W4jrcdQ92SYwWW4mhXLc4DFgj3N8HVX4nDxQwgW3xDzFN3LMbHQW8gy5y86z9WF7W4tv1Kv2GH2z-W6Yb4dB6bF2qvW3CHs-t8SKjz3W8TPk1l1w31dQV5g-nK3PwWcvW9bff-J75VjVGW2WW1r07wj7r-W4sRV8B4Y1ZPhW5Mx5828M_h1NW3rCtXl2NBglPW3D8Y3W377vksW20PpJX25Gg7CW2NL_ZQ388pbXW4xSVQp6pzRrhW27DkFs6HJ1MSVzh7P91v43jjV4z3g93V1lwlVTt_7H8HDxkcW6BVNjh3YSK7WdRQjlR04\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>centralcoast.nsw.gov.au<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Have your swimmers and beach towels ready, as 15 Central Coast beaches and The Grant McBride Baths will begin their 2023\/24 Beach Patrol Season from this Saturday 23 September.&nbsp;
