San Diego City Lifeguards protect 17 miles of coastline from the tip of Point Loma north to Torrey Pines and three miles out to sea. Lifeguards also protect the 4,600 square acres around Mission Bay Park and provide swift river rescue along San Diego's rivers.

If you see or experience a water-related emergency, dial 9-1-1. Your phone call will be directed to the lifeguard's dispatch center and help will be on the way. For more information on the City of San Diego's Lifeguard Services, visit their website.
