Why do the beaches have designated "open" seasons?

To ensure the safety of swimmers we highly recommend swimming only during the beach’s open season, as this is the only time the lifeguards will be on duty.
Swimming outside of the open season is also not recommended because showers will be unavailable and the beach may not yet be cleaned for use.
