Okaloosa County is looking for lifeguards to help keep our locals and visitors safe this upcoming season. 

Tryouts will be held every Wednesday and Friday at 8:30am and run through February. 

  • Pay, after training, starts at $18 per hour.

Interested applicants may arrive at the Beach Safety headquarters located between The Boardwalk and Angler’s on Okaloosa Island.

“Okaloosa Beach Safety lifeguards are more than just people who save you if you are in trouble in the water,” wrote the county in a press release. “They educate, inform and prevent injury on the beach.”
