People crowd California beaches amid coronavirus concerns

Seeking relief from a heat wave, thousands of people crowded beaches in Southern California this weekend amid the coronavirus pandemic, despite a statewide stay-at-home order implemented by the governor last month, reported Cable News Network (CNN).

While beaches in Los Angeles and San Diego Counties remained closed, they were open in Ventura and Orange Counties.

However, beachgoers still had to adhere to a patchwork of guidelines and restrictions, including keeping parking lots closed to discourage outside visitors and limit crowds, said the CNN report.

"It's a beautiful day," said the report quoting Frank Feerini, who was at Huntington Beach in Orange County as saying to CNN affiliate KABC Saturday.
