The beach was the place to be
For many people, the beach was definitely the place to be on the Australia Day weekend.
All car parks were full and many cars were patrolling endlessly looking for parks.
Some had a long walk to the beach.
Ocean Beach Surf Life Saving Club has reported its patrolling members had amassed more than 1000 hours for the December and January period to date.
The club has counted a beach attendance of 49,252 people, and has taken 751 prevention actions, was called on for First Aid 18 times and performed 14 rescues.
