The
next time you plan to go swimming on St. George Island make sure to
check the beach flag widget at http://oysterradio.com/ first.
The
widget was created by 2K web group for the Franklin County Parks and
Recreation department.
The
beach warning flag alerts swimmers to the daily rip tide and other
beach 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.
A
purple flag means dangerous marine life is in the water.
There
is even a link that takes you to more information about beach
conditions.
The
Parks and Recreation clean-up crew are in charge of changing the
flags every day.
If
you don't have access to the internet, you will find beach flags in 2
locations on St. George Island, one at Carrabelle Beach and one in
Alligator Point.
