Jacksonville Beach Ocean Rescue explains important water safety tips ahead of busier summer months.
JACKSONVILLE BEACH, Fla. — As the beaches get busier with people visiting for spring break or summer vacations, safety is top of mind. A study done byranked Nassau County as the fifth dangerous beach in the U.S. based on the number of rescues per 100,000 people over the last 10 years.
Maxwell Ervanian, the Training and Operations Officer for Jacksonville Beach Ocean Rescue, said it is too soon to tell how this year's numbers will compare to years past, but it has been a steady month of spring breakers. Ervanian said they have seen an increase in rip current rescues, which they attribute to a lack of knowledge and experience.
Despite the difference in the data between the beaches, the message from ocean rescue remains the same: stay aware in the water. Ervanian said their most common water rescue incident is people who think they are stronger swimmers than they really are.
