[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Was there no lifeguard on this beach? I grew up in south Florida and spent summers vacationing at beaches up and down both coasts , and there were always lifeguards telling people not to dig. Not only because the people digging can get trapped, but it's also hazardous to other people walking the beach, sea turtles nesting and hatching, etc. Just awful. I'm sure those parents had no idea this could happen. Reminds me of the little kid who got killed by an alligator at Disney - Floridians know alligators can be in any body of water, sand is unstable, etc., but tourists don't necessarily appreciate those dangers. [/quote] There were no lifeguards in that part of the beach, no. I am in South FL and that is the case pretty much all along the coastline: busy areas of the beach are manned, and then by some condos and hotels they are not. It's a cost issue for cities to man every single part of the beach.[/quote]
