Sharing an interesting comment from the lifeguards stationed at the beach as published in Dawn - The lifeguards at the Seaview beach said they did all they could to discourage people from going into the water but no one listened. “They don’t care for their lives, and when something happens, they blame others for it, saying no one cared. We are deployed here from morning till evening with minimal equipment or ambulances at our disposal. We can only warn or jump in after someone if we see him or her drowning. And we are only a handful of people managing huge crowds of beach-goers. So it’s better safe than be sorry,” “The picnickers grab us by our collars when someone has drowned. They scream and yell and want to know how we let it happen. How conveniently they forget those red flags we place on the beach asking them not to cross the line, how we request them to stay out of the water. We are only interested in their safety but they don’t understand,”
