I have a question. One rental agreement we were sent for a beachfront property had a rule that the front door and the back door were never allowed to be open at the same time. The reason for this might be obvious, but I am just not getting it. Anyone know?

The through wind can be stiff and the door (usually front) can slam and cause damage or injury.

It is illegal to leave items such as umbrellas, chairs, tents, toys, etc. on the beach overnight. Such items can cause accidents and are dangerous to nesting sea turtles and their offspring.
Please refill holes dug in the sand, even small ones - people will fall into them and break something!
Do not allow anyone to dig caves or tunnels in the sand. Suffocation deaths have ocurred from collapsing caves and tunnels.
Children who are not toilet trained should wear swimmies in all waters.
Remain clothed. Unfortunately, there are no nude beaches in SoWal. At least not during the day.- might leave that one out.
Great suggestions! My husband was the poor victim of an abandoned beach hole one night walking back to our condo from Bud & Alley's
! We still laugh about it...but whenever we run across one...we fill it in!

Ah, makes sense! Thanks Kurt!
Good suggestions! We didn't know about the sea turtle nests our first year there.. didn't know why it was bad to leave tents up on the beach, etc.
Just one suggestion.. take a few pics of what's left of the dunes right now and add them to the list to reinforce why it's so important not to walk on them!
I really think 99% of the people who come to SoWal do so because they think it's the most beautiful place in the country (I know that's why we come), and would be happy to do what they can to preserve it, if they knew what those things were.

Thanks Paula - I am printing out the list and will keep it in our house! It's great information.

My husband was once the recipient of one of those injuries. Nearly cut his finger in half!
