One person died Friday afternoon in the surf off the Ocean Dunes.
Shortly before 3 p.m., a 9-1-1 caller reported a male caught in a rip tide. San Luis Obispo County firefighters then responded to the Oceano Dunes for a surf rescue.
Responders pulled the victim from the water and immediately started CPR. The victim, however, was pronounced dead at the scene.
