What is the cut-off time for the Los Angeles County Ocean Lifeguard Candidate try-out swim?
Times vary year by year depending on ocean conditions. In years that there is a large swell or very cold water, times will generally be slower than years with no surf and warm water. For this reason, we take the top finishers by place rather than by time. For a very rough estimate, most of the qualifiers will be across the finish line at or before the 20 minute mark.
