There’ll be a lot of South East Queenslanders heading to the beaches over the Christmas break, and this means for our Lifesavers and guards, there’s plenty of activity to monitor.

Dave McLean, Duty Officer at Surf Life Saving Sunshine Coast, told Dean Miller on 4BC Summer Drive, 'We just want everyone to stay safe, and remember, stay between those red and yellow flags.'

Following the rain, Mr McLean continued, 'The water is still a little murky. The surf has brought some marine life around, so that's another advantage of staying between the flags.'

Chris Maynard, Chief Lifeguard for the City of the Gold Coast told Dean Miller, 'Absolutely gorgeous down here on the Goldy, just a picture along the coast.'

Mr Maynard continued, '[The water] has really cleared up here... looking really good for a swim anywhere along the coast.'

He continued to tell Dean Miller that they have had a couple of incidents, and continued to warn swimmers to stay between the flags this festive season.
