Safety tips
To prevent accidents, please remember these safety tips.

Do not feed or approach wildlife. North Carolina is experiencing a rise in rabies cases. Report sick or aggressive animals to a ranger.

Sharp drop-offs, strong currents and jellyfish may create hazardous swimming conditions.

Watch the weather. Be alert to approaching storms and seek shelter.

Four-wheel-drive roads may flood; observe rising tides. Extreme care must be taken while driving in soft sand. State-owned vehicles are not permitted to tow stuck vehicles.

Swim only in the designated swimming area.

Prolonged exposure to heat, wind and sunlight may cause sunburn, sun poisoning and/or dehydration. Use sun protection and drink plenty of fluids.
