Beginning on August 20 through August 28, above average and extreme high tides will affect vehicle access to some extent each day at the Crossover. Tide heights may continue to be higher than usual this week as Hurricane Ernesto passes offshore. Each morning, the Natural Resources Officer will assess tide height, weather conditions and beach topography to determine the timing and extent of tide closures. Vehicles may need to leave some or all of the areas over the Crossover. Typically, tide closures last about 1 ½ hours before and after high tide, so remember to check the tides before heading out to the beach.
