Three teens have died in suspected drownings at local beaches in the last 10 days and lifeguards said they’re seeing a surge in calls for help recently.
There will be many more days at the beach for children now that school is out for the summer but that should come with some caution.
“If I can’t see lifeguards around, I would not go too far out, because I’m not the strongest swimmer out there. So you know your limits! Yeah,” 15-year-old Chris Gonzalez told News4JAX.“The ocean is not a swimming pool. The ocean is consistently and continuously changing while a pool will forever be the same,” Lt. Max Ervanian said.
Ervanian said guards have been busy all season long responding to significantly more calls than in previous years with more residents, more vacationers and more activity. “It’s a lot of people. It’s not just water rescues we respond to. It’s missing people, it’s medical emergencies, it’s traumatic emergencies, it’s law enforcement incidents. We’re seeing uptick of all types of calls for service,” he said.
