The RNLI says 20 beaches in Cornwall, Devon and Jersey will be patrolled during October half-term.
The RNLI said between Saturday and 28 October, 20 beaches would be patrolled from 10:00 BST until 18:00, and on 29 October until 17:00.
Guy Botterill, the regional lifeguard lead, urged people to "make best use of the beaches which still have RNLI lifeguard patrols".In Devon, those with a lifeguard patrol are Woolacombe, Croyde and Bantham, and in Jersey Le Braye beach. Mr Botterill said: "This time of year, the water is at its warmest and we tend to see an increase in swell, meaning bigger, more consistent waves, but this can also increase the frequency and power of rip currents.
"As we reach the October half-term with patrols ending on the beaches next weekend, we urge people to make best use of the beaches which still have RNLI lifeguard patrols and choose to visit one of these."
