Former Sergeant qualifies as US Marine

Congratulations to former Sea Bright Ocean Rescue Sergeant-EMT Lane, aka 2 SAM

December 2018:   Our colleague and close friend completed Marine Corps boot camp. Now USMC Pvt Lane has become the second Sea Bright lifeguard to finish specialized military training in 2018.  Lane has completed one of the hardest basic amphibious military training programs in the world.  He will begin AIT next month as well as amphibious assault school in the coming year.  We are super proud of Curran and we hope he will be able to return to the beach soon. We all knew you could do it bro! Very Proud of you.

Sea Bright Ocean Rescue is a municipal lifeguard service........

With a daily crew of two roving lifeguard supervisors, twelve ocean lifeguards and a dedicated technical rescue team, SBOR provides protection for two public beach areas within the boro and responds to 3.5 miles of privately lifeguarded and unguarded public beach. In addition our Ocean Rescue supervisors and 4 additional  lifeguards oversee aquatic safety  at two public river front beaches  in the Highlands.  


After-hours our USLA certified (ARRT) Surf Rescue Team 43-88 responds throughout the boro and along with Sea Bright Fire Rescue provides  automatic aid for water rescues and critical medical emergencies within Sandy Hook National Park and for the surrounding town's such as the Highlands and Rumson.  Our rescue team is sometimes called  to neighboring boros to assist in the search and recovery of missing swimmers who are presumed drowned, otherwise known as a Code-X.
