Lifesaving Signals

Lifesaving signals are standardized visual or audible signals used at aquatic rescue sites to communicate critical information quickly and accurately. They help lifeguards, rescue teams, and beachgoers understand situations like emergencies, hazards, or safety instructions. Examples include flags indicating water conditions, hand signals for communication, or alarms signaling a need for immediate help. These signals ensure coordinated responses, improve safety, and help prevent accidents by providing clear, universally understood cues during emergencies or routine safety checks.
