Beach Safety

Our coast is well known for rip currents. The first and utmost thing to remember – when you get pulled into a current is DO NOT PANIC. Most drowning happen when people start to panic. Stay calm and try to swim parallel with the beach, escaping out of the current. You can then surf the waves out to the beach as soon as you feel you are out of danger. KNOW your beach and where these currents are most likely to form. Find out from the lifeguard where it is safe to swim.
