Beach warning flag system now installed at the St. George Island public beach


            There is now a new warning system to help keep Swimmers at the public beach on St. George Island safe.

The county recently installed a beach warning flag system at the public beach and a sign explaining what the flags mean.

The beach warning flag was installed on September the 11th – it alerts swimmers to the daily rip tide conditions.

A green flag means the risk is low – red means high risk.

A double red flag means the water is closed to public use.

The Parks and Recreation clean-up crew will be in charge of changing the flags every day.
