Coast Guard will close off a section of water for a paddle race

The Coast Guard will enforce a special local regulation for a paddle event in Cape May, New Jersey, on June 22, 2025. This means that during the event, non-participants will need permission to enter the regulated area.

This is a routine safety measure for a specific event. It temporarily restricts access to a navigable waterway to protect participants in a paddle race. These types of regulations are common for marine events.
