Water safety warning: Swim at patrolled beaches, Surf Life Savers say

Brittany Keogh Reporter from Rodney Times

Hi neighbours, there have been more preventable drownings in Auckland so far in 2019 than at the same time last year - and Surf Life Saving New Zealand are now urging Aucklanders to swim at beaches patrolled by life guards during summer, such as Orewa and Red Beach, in a bid to prevent more tragedies in the water. Where are your favourite safe swimming spots in Auckland?
