California beachgoers crowded the sand as some communities opened their shorelines during a regional heat wave.
Coronavirus lockdowns were lifted at beaches across Orange County as temperatures surpassed 80 degrees.
Photos show some beachgoers gathered Friday in crowds that appear to violate social distancing rules.
One image shows a group of at least five young women within six feet of each other on Huntington Beach. Others show sunbathers sitting so close their towels touch.
On the north side of the beach, bikers, dogs and stroller-pushing couples swarmed the boardwalk, according to photos. Many were without masks.
Aerial shots taken from above Aliso Beach in Laguna show people stationed several feet apart on the sand below.
The images are eerily similar to those from Jacksonville, Florida, a week earlier, when hundreds flocked to the coastline after a controversial decision by the city’s mayor to reopen beaches with limited hours.
