hotels but a lot of restaurants, you've got people in the souvenir industry, a lot of gas stations, all waiting for people that should be here. but check this out. a lot of the beach is completely empty. a few people here and there. normally on the fourth of july, you'd have folks all over the beach. there are still some people over here. we have some of lifeguards and the beach patrol on this vehicle making its way towards that sand barrier. but the action on the beach is going to be people staring at the water, people getting pulled out like isaac. a frustrating time on the nation's birthday. >> beautiful white sands there. and that's inviting. but when you're on the beach, you want to cool off. you want to take a little dip in the water. but as we heard from isaac, you just can't do it, safety first. you can't dip your feet in the water right now. >> reporter: absolutely. it's like being starving. you stand next to a refrigerator with all kinds of great food and can't take a bite. can't touch it. >> no fair.
