Fire Island National Seashore Announces Return of Lifeguard Service to Barrett Beach/Talisman
Patchogue, NY- Fire Island National Seashore will have weekend only lifeguard service at Barrett Beach/Talisman.
"One of the conditions that did not allow for lifeguard service has changed, allowing Fire Island National Seashore to redeploy lifeguards to Barrett Beach/Talisman. Beginning Saturday, July 13, lifeguards will be on site Saturday's and Sunday's for the remainder of the 2024 summer season.” said Superintendent Alexcy Romero. “Shoaling and limited driving area due to the winter no named storms will still limit other visitor services.”
Lifeguarded beaches, restroom maintenance and other visitor services are available at Watch Hill and Sailors Haven.
