These reports are distributed weekly during the summer months. These summaries complement current information on the park website that is updated frequently during the summer.

On-site signage, of the beaches in the Seashore, is the most accurate and current indications of areas that are open to public access or closed to entry.  Closed areas are clearly marked with symbolic fencing and signs that are subject to change during the wildlife breeding season.
