SAN CLEMENTE, Calif. (KABC) -- If you plan to spend the night on a San
Clemente beach this summer, you may have to leave a little earlier.

The city is making changes to make their beaches safer following a spike
in criminal activity, including the beating of three marines by a crowd
of teenagers last month.

Many residents are excited for the beach season, when they can enjoy one
of Southern California's beautiful beaches and ride the waves.

"Super awesome. The beaches are what make it great," said Aidan Sautner,
a San Clemente resident.

But the city's mayor said San Clemente's beaches aren't always so
perfect, especially when the sun goes down.

"It's dangerous late at night. We don't have lifeguards there. There's a
lot of illegal activity going on late at night, so it helps us enforce
all of that if we close our beach a little earlier at 10 instead of
midnight," said Mayor Chris Duncan.

Duncan said enforcing the new rule has been challenging, but they're in
the process of hiring four new Orange County Sheriff's deputies who will
work as beach patrol.

"These deputies are going to be focused right here, right in our beach
areas. Allow the other deputies to handle the things in the rest of
town, and they'll be able to stay here in our beach areas to enforce
things like the beach closure," said Duncan.

The city has said the change in beach hours won't impact most locals or visitors. And many residents are happy with the move.

"I'm glad they're taking action about it if they feel that way. It's
better than nothing if they feel there's issues," said Sautner.

San Clemente resident Justin Aldridge agrees.

"I think it's a great idea. It makes you feel like you're safe," he
said.

In another attempt to increase security, the City Council will vote on a contract related to hiring private security during a meeting Tuesday
night, Duncan said.
