For the fourth straight day, swimming was forbidden off Baldwin County's beaches because of rough surf and rip currents, but sunbathers, skimboarders and those curious to see the wounds inflicted by Ike started to trickle to the area's sandy vistas.
Nervy surfers returned to their haunt west of Perdido Pass to ride waves that were not half of what they were a day before but remained treacherous. At Little Lagoon Pass in Gulf Shores, families set up on a beach of sand that Ike had forced into the inlet.
