Our staff takes great care in planning for each days activities to ensure that all of our participants enjoy their junior lifeguard experience to the greatest extent possible. Many factors are taken into consideration such as ocean conditions and the skill level and interests of the participants.

DROP-OFF AND ÅPICKUP LOCATIONS
In order toensure the safety of all participants we have designated specific locations for parents to drop-off and pickup their children. Our staff will meet them here and escort them to the program location. Drop-off and pickup are also the best times for parents to meet with our staff to ask questions or to provide us with any information concerning their participants.

From the intersection of Niguel Rd. and Pacific Coast Highway turn west on Ritz Carlton Dr. (towards the ocean). Turn right into the metered parking lot across from the hotel entrance. The participant pick-up and drop-off point is on the left at the entrance to the path to the beach.
