The Coast Guard will block off part of the Atlantic Ocean for an air show
What happened
The Coast Guard is creating a temporary "safety zone" in the Atlantic Ocean near Wrightsville Beach, North Carolina. This means no boats or people can enter that area during an air show on October 2, 2025, unless they have special permission.
Why it matters
This is a routine, temporary measure to keep people safe during a public event. It does not change any long-term rules or affect how the Coast Guard operates in general. It simply designates a specific area as off-limits for a few hours.
The signal
The safety zone will be in effect only on October 2, 2025, and will then expire.
