Summary

Folly Beach is rolling out free CPR, AED, and rescue training this summer to empower locals and visitors to handle beach emergencies before first responders arrive. Partnering with groups like Warrior Surf and Respect the Break, the city is making safety accessible to everyone — especially crucial near the pier where rip currents pose real risks. Enhanced warning signs and hazard flags are also in the works, and a real-life success story from Wind Sports for Wounded Warriors proves the impact of trained bystanders. With more classes planned for fall and two free sessions this June at the Public Safety Building, Folly Beach is turning safety into a community effort — because every second counts.
