Be ocean aware. Follow all posted beach rules, lifeguard instructions, and event safety guidance.
Participate safely. Guests should participate in surf, fitness, yoga, and other activities within their personal abilities.
Keep the beach clean. Please dispose of trash properly and help us leave the beach better than we found it.
Children should be supervised by a parent or responsible adult.
Be respectful. Help us maintain a welcoming, inclusive, and family-friendly environment for everyone.
In an emergency, notify event staff, security, or a lifeguard immediately.
