Be on the look out for the new Perdido Key Rotary Club Rescue Tubes now located on Johnson Beach!

How They Work:
•Immediate access: Anyone can pull the bright yellow or red foam tube off its wall or post mount in an emergency.

•911 location tracking: Posts display specific location numbers or codes so callers can give exact coordinates to emergency dispatchers.

•Buoyant support: The attached strap and long foam design safely support multiple people or keep a tired swimmer afloat.

Safety Rules for Bystanders:
•Call first: Always dial 911 immediately before entering the water or taking a tube.

•Know your limits: Do not enter the water with a tube if you are a weak swimmer or feel unsafe in the surf.

•Keep distance: Let the distressed person hold onto the end of the tube rather than grabbing you directly.
