Primary Research:
North Gong Beach:
On Saturday, my family and I went to North Gong beach where we were able to see a sign warning visitors not to go into the water due to that that it was when breakwaters were happening. This sign helps us to understand that if you were caught in a breakwater than you will be in a lot of danger due to that you will be unable to fight against it.
