Junior Lifeguards

In an effort to provide quality water safety education, the State Parks  Junior Lifeguard Program introduces young people to safe marine and aquatic recreation opportunities and ocean lifesaving skills.  Students of all abilities and skill levels may participate.

At all stages of the program, safety is the primary consideration, as students are challenged to have a good time, become more physically fit, and learn respect for the water, themselves and each other.

The Junior Lifeguards' team-building philosophy is perfect for learning how to deal with various water safety situations.  The program consists of day camps, usually lasting three to five weeks, that provide instruction in first aid, CPR, ocean safety, rescue techniques, surfing and bodyboarding.

Currently, Junior Lifeguard programs are available at state beaches in the Los Angeles, Ventura, Monterey, Orange County, San Diego, Santa Barbara County, and Santa Cruz areas and at Lake Perris and Folsom Lake State Recreation Areas.

Sessions are available in our area at Carlsbad State Beach and Torrey Pines State Beach.
