This will increase to seven days per week on all of those beaches from the beginning of July with 41 lifeguards, who are fully trained, on duty on Kerry beaches over the summer.
 Beachgoers are reminded that lifeguards are only on duty during specific times which are advised locally on each Blue Flag beach and that lifeguards cover only designated patrolled areas which are indicated by the presence of lifeguard flags.
 Kerry County Council is reminding all beachgoers and those swimming and bathing at the county&rsquo;s beaches this summer to act responsibly and safely in the water at all times.
 Kerry has 15 Blue Flags for 2022 which were recently awarded by the Blue Flag International Jury (FEE) for meeting a series of high standards &ndash; the largest number of such beaches in the country.
