Ireland is set to have its hottest day this weekend, with temperatures possibly reaching 30C. Overnight lows will remain around 18C, making sleep difficult. Met Éireann predicts a high of 29C, potentially surpassing the current year's record of 29.5C. Coastal areas will see huge crowds as over a million people visit resorts. With congestion anticipated, parking will be limited. Lifeguards emphasize beach safety, advising swimmers to remain in designated areas and to stay calm in emergencies.
"Always ensure that you swim between our flags, our red and yellow flags. That's our patrol zone, and that's where we'll be able to keep an eye on you."
"Swimming in a big group is always good because you'll have a lot of people to look out for you. And if, God forbid, you get into trouble in the sea, what I would advise would be to remain calm."
"Water Safety Ireland also urged those heading for the beach to 'make safety a top priority' this weekend."
