Become Part of Something That Matters

The Jones Beach Lifeguard Association is more than a job — it is a brotherhood and sisterhood built on nearly a century of service, sacrifice, and pride. Every guard who has stood watch over these shores, every rescue made, every life returned safely to the sand — that legacy belongs to every member of this association.

Whether you are an experienced lifeguard, a new candidate just beginning your training, or someone who simply loves this beach and wants to give back, there is a place for you here.

*All JBLA board members and officers serve without compensation. Every dollar donated directly supports our mission, programs, and the future of Jones Beach Lifeguarding.
