Safety tips
To prevent accidents, remember the following safety tips.

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

Observe all swimming pool rules.

Due to underwater hazards and irregular water depths, swimming from the park's shoreline is not permitted.

Remember that you may be boating in unfamiliar waters. Exercise cautious seamanship.

Do not water-ski in boat-launching or mooring areas.

Venomous snakes, ticks and poisonous plants may be found along park trails. Exercise caution.

Park gates are locked at specific times that vary with the seasons. Should an emergency arise after the gates are locked, there is a pay phone outside the park office. Emergency procedures are posted beside the phone.

For other safety tips or for a further explanation of park rules and regulations, contact a ranger at the park office.
