Beach flags and warning signs
Everyone should learn how to stay safe in the
surf, sand, and sun. The beach and the ocean
hide many hazards. Discover the visual signs
that can be spotted on your favorite beaches.
It's not just the big waves. There are
dangerous currents, lightning, harmful
algae, sharks, jelly-fish, and man-o-war
stings out there.
The Yellow Flag:
Meaning: Medium Hazard
Moderate surf and/or currents
are present.
Weak swimmers are discouraged
from entering the water. For
others, enhanced care and
caution should be exercised.
The Red Over Red Flag
Meaning: Water is closed to public use
The Purple Flag
Meaning: Marine pests present
Jellyfish, stingrays, sea snakes or other
marine life are present in the water,
and can cause minor injuries.
This flag is not intended to indicate
the presence of sharks. In this latter
case the red flag or double red flag
may be hoisted.
The Red Over Yellow Flag
Meaning: Recommended swimming
area with lifeguard supervision
The area is protected by lifeguards. These flags may be
used in pairs spaced apart to indicate a designated
area or zone along a beach or waterfront that is most
closely supervised or patrolled by qualified lifeguards,
and where swimming and/or body surfing is
permitted. These flags may be used singly to indicate
that swimming is permitted in front of the area where
the flag is flown and that the area is under the
supervision of a qualified person.
The Quartered Flag
Meaning: Watercraft area
These flags may be used in pairs spaced apart to
indicate a designated area or zone along a beach or
waterfront that is used by those with surfboards and
other non-powered watercraft.
The Black Ball Flag
Meaning: Watercraft use prohibited
Surfboards and other non-powered watercraft
are prohibited.
The Orange Windsock Flag
Meaning: Offshore winds present, inflatables should
not be used
This cone-shaped device is used to indicate the
direction of offshore winds and to show that it is
unsafe for inflatable objects to be used in the water.
