And while you're at the beach, don't forget to put on some sunscreen, find some shade, drink lots of water and be aware of rip currents.

Also, don't forget the sand is hot.

"The sand was just a little hot, had to run across, put my feet in the water," Barry Harvey said.

Folks out enjoying the day said it's cool seeing everyone getting out and having fun.

"It's just amazing," Baer said. "Lake Worth Beach is just amazing."
