8 Ways to Love Our Beaches

1. Never, ever litter. When visiting our beaches, leave only your footprints.
2. Share our beach with wildlife. Always walk around flocks of birds.
3. Level the sand before you leave. Holes are dangerous for beach walkers.
4. No live shelling. “If someone is home, leave it alone.”
5. Keep off the dunes – they are very important to the health of our beaches.
6. Bikes and dogs are not allowed on the beach.
7. Glass is not allowed on the beach.
8. Join us for a beach clean-up!
