The San Diego coast is a popular destination for visitors and residents alike, keeping the San Diego Fire-Rescue Lifeguard Division busy with more than 9,000 water rescues performed on average each year. To kick off the summer season, SDFD lifeguards, in collaboration with Toyota, the Official Vehicle of the lifeguards, will promote water safety throughout the summer and concluding on Labor Day. Look for SDFD lifeguards and Toyota at your local beaches including Mission, La Jolla and Ocean Beach.  San Diego public safety personnel will be on hand to discuss water safety tips at these events, as well as highlight job opportunities as an SDFD lifeguard. Toyota will be on-site in La Jolla and Ocean Beach to showcase their fleet to include a lifeguard vehicle which is a key tool in public safety efforts along the City’s beaches and cliffs.
